Karen LeFrak, Children’s Author

Karen LeFrak, author of Best in Show and two “Jake the Dog” books, wanted a web site to feature each book and be fun for kids and adults. We created eight custom Flash games based on the story of each book to expand on the books’ educational theme of teaching children about dog shows, the orchestra, and the ballet.

Each page of the web site has a different custom theme based on the varied and colorful illustrations in the books, but with a consistent navigation system to tie the content together. Visit this site >>

This site was originally built in 2005 and was recently redesigned to have a new look.
