The new version has a "Books" tab that lets you search the Project Gutenberg offline catalog and download titles to the Journal. Gutenberg has lots of Juvenile books as well as well known books by European authors in their original languages. I posted it on ASLO yesterday, with new screenshots. In addition to the catalog search, if you run it on SoaS you can use the Speech tab to read the book aloud with word highlighting. Many different voices are available, so for instance you could use a French voice for the works of Dumas and Verne. The books are plain text, no pictures, but if I say so myself Read Etexts has become impressive in a way it never has been before. For books with pictures you could suggest a visit to the Internet Archive website to get books in PDF format that Read could use. There are some remarkable PDFs of scanned in book pages there.
