Yes.  It's called a browser.

I'm confused.  AIUI, you already created a mozplugin so libevince
could run in Browse to address some of the problems loading PDFs from
the browser, see

.  Why do kids need Read then?

Whatever features Read might need specifically for books, extend
Browse with them.  Your code is potentially relevant to a hundred
million Firefox users, and maybe a few have already implemented what
you need.
