App Description

Classics have all the page-turning suspense of modern novels…when you can understand them!

SwipeBook puts the words of the world’s greatest authors into plain and simple English with a Swipe of a finger!

Unlike other apps that put the original and modern side-by-side in a way that is distracting and hard to read, SwipeBook only shows you the modern text when you want to see it. Simply swipe your finger over the text, and the text will change; swipe it again and it will change back.

This app features:
• Over 30 classic books translated into modern English (From Dante to Jane Austen)
• Study Guides for major works
• Lesson Plans for major works

We are already making lots of improvements to this app--both to the content / features and the UI; we are eager to receive any feedback about what you dislike about the app or what you would like to see in future updates.
