Bookr is a great tool for creating books for beginning ESL students.  I created a short picture book for my beginning literacy students entitled Going to the StoreBookr enabled me to choose culturally relevant pictures and words that my students would be able to read and understand. I would use this in my classroom to teach my students vocabulary and literacy skills.  As shopping is an activity that all my students engage in, it is a shared daily or weekly routine that does not need a big introduction.
