No one denies that printed books are irreplacable. They can be lent, traded, displayed and enjoyed for decades.
But electronic books have their place as well. They're portable, adaptable, infinitely customizable and —whether you like it or not— they're going to live side-by-side with printed books for years to come.
We want to dispel the myth that digital books can't also be crafted works of visual design. Just as web design has evolved and matured, so too will ebooks, and book designers have a new medium available in which to express their creativity.
The Zen Garden is a place to showcase this new way of designing stories.

The book starts with Anne's wedding to Gilbert, which is very small and takes place in the Green Gables orchard. After Anne and Gilbert's wedding, they move to a house that Anne has long anticipated as her "house of dreams", in Four Winds Point, an area near the village of the Glen St. Mary. There, Anne and Gilbert meet many interesting people, such as the eccentric Captain Jim and Miss Cornelia Bryant, who deems the Blythes as part of "the race that knows Joseph." Anne also meets Leslie Moore, who lost her beloved brother and her father, and then was forced by her mother to marry the mean-spirited and unscrupulous Dick Moore. She felt free for a year or so after her husband disappeared on a sea voyage, but then he turned up, amnesiac, brain-damaged and generally helpless. She becomes friends with Anne, but is sometimes bitter towards her because she is so happy and free.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne%27s_House_of_Dreams
