Book Creator is SOOO Worth the money! 
And with one Book at a time for free,  you can even get teachers on board using it before you have to go lobby for $.  

The fact that it converts the book in two artifacts that can be accessible for non IOS users  makes it an must Have App in my book.  
Easy to use
Stores to Google Drive
Saves as PDF
and as Colleen said.. export as MOVIE (which you can now embed on your web page if you want) 

Very SOLID support and growth from the company.

Hi Rusty,
We use Book Creator. It saves as a PDF or as movie. You can add text, draw pictures, add pictures, record your voice. The free version only allows you to make one book so we bought it.

Hi List,

I've had a lot of great recommendations from the list in the past, so I'm looking for a good one again today.

Story Buddy 2 is an iPad app we use for digital story telling by making books.  It allows the kids to type text on a 'page' then draw on the 'page'.  Then we can add pages and print them as pdf's.  Pretty simple functionality, but it used to be rock solid and now it's buggy and not updated.

Do you have a recomendation for a replacement?  We're looking for in a book making app
  • ease of use
  • ability to add typed text
  • draw or use pictures
  • save as a PDF
Thanks for any recomendations!

Rusti
