Add text and audio to pictures and you can flip the pages. That's mostly it. I also provided a couple of books myself.
(update: removed multi-line question 'where are examples?')

(all picture books with user id 'bef')
Please feel free to incorporate this in your app.
My books export to a zip file that includes a json like that. Would probably make more sense if we both would parse to something more universally used (https://schema.org/Book perhaps) and then perhaps more people would be able to use it.
I don't fully understand the wiki like edit, but not sure I need to.
Might be nice to add an index page on the space-bar press, where you have thumbnails of each slide to quickly jump to specific image.
If you also want to introduce reading aspects, I highly recommend the African Storybook collection: https://www.africanstorybook.org/ all kinds of a short (like 10 pages) books for young kids.
For localhost access, you can read the books in Kolibri (a FOSS learning platform you can install on any old computer a raspberri pi). For the African Storybook channel, see this online demo https://kolibri-demo.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/topics/... and look around that demo server to see all the other channels available.
That is exactly how I would like children books to be presented.
I see that there are also some English language books. Does there exist a site in this format, with English books but with world-wide cultures?
I have been googling for it now and then but am still unable to find the 'perfect' presentation format.
1/ Global Digital Library (PDF and ePub format) https://digitallibrary.io/ and as offline-capable Kolibri channel https://kolibri-catalog-en.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/t...
2/ Pratham Books' StoryWeaver (includes some of the African Storybook titles, and based around PDFs) https://kolibri-demo.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/topics/...
3/ Learn JS games (probably need 6+ years old for this) https://kolibri-catalog-en.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/t...
4/ Videos of kids from different cultures: https://kolibri-catalog-en.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/t...
5/ Educational math videos with lots of singing: https://kolibri-catalog-en.learningequality.org/en/learn/#/t...
And more generally, you can see all EN channels in the catalog: https://catalog.learningequality.org/#/public?languages=en
Any suggestions for how to avoid this?
There is an example database in the Bitbucket repository if that is what you mean.
Can I quote you on this?
Now that gets me to think about just how persuasive images are to children's minds. When I think about velociraptors I almost exclusively imagine the Jurassic Park movie velociraptors, and not these ones.
