Jane Hague home-schools her children. Her interactive series, Tilly’s Number Town Educational Children’s Books, was born after Hague discovered that there were very few resources that approached numbers, particularly multiplication, in a multi-sensory fashion. “The Great Snail Race” is the first in a series of ten fun children’s books for the iPhone and iPad.
