Online, June 13, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Ripple Digital Publishing has been recognized by two of the publishing industry biggest advocates for Red is... eBook - The "IPPY" Awards, organized to recognize excellence in independent publishing and Communication Arts, an online and print publication that recognizes the best in visual communications.

The IPPY awards ceremony was held on May 29th in New York where Ripple Digital Publishing picked up the Gold Medal for Best Children's Illustrated eBook. For the month of May, Red is... was also featured in Communication Arts' online EXHIBIT.

This beautifully illustrated eBook from Ripple Digital Publishing (http://bit.ly/18yFvBf) explores the many emotions and meanings associated with the colour red. Love, anger, temperature and even sound are just a few of the associations that come to life with the touch of an image to visually articulate this expressive colour.

Written and designed by graphic artist Ivy Wong, Red is... is an enhanced eBook featuring read along capability and animations. "I wanted to share my love of colour and imagery with children in an interactive format that would appeal to them," she explained. "Colour is a powerful communication tool we use to convey meaning about ourselves and the world around us, and what better way to learn this then through the primary colour red."

Red is... supports dictionary and Wikipedia lookups while audio and animation aim help children develop their cognitive skills as they learn words about the colour red in written, graphic and auditory forms.

Red is... can be download at iTunes and at Amazon's Kindle Store.
