Put that thing away is a new humorous, illustrated iBook all about life with an iPad. It’s the creation of Sylvia van Ommen – a simple picture book with no text that offers a look at modern living with an iPad.

Recognizable for everyone who ever said or wanted to say to his/her partner: ‘Put that thing away.’
I’m an illustrator and writer and I made this story when my partner got an iPad. His enthusiastic and frequent use of this new gadget inspired me to make ‘Put That Thing Away’.

I just got an intro email about the book this morning and it sounded fun – so I installed it and browsed through the book earlier this morning.

The story is fun, and is one that nearly all iPad owners, and the significant others of iPad owners, should certainly relate to.

The illustrations are simple and cartoon-like, and the story even has quite a nice little twist at the end. If you’re after a fun little read for Monday morning, this clever little picture book fits the bill.

Here’s an iBookstore link for Put that thing away; it’s priced at $1.99.
