The publication is a little dated, but the exploration into the psychology of children is incredibly fascinating. What did you think?

Very interesting! I had a conversation with a transmedia creator in Venezuela the other day about how children were the best audience for transmedia projects. It comes so naturally to them.

That's a really interesting observation on how children are the best audience for transmedia. I wonder if it's because of the amount of time they have to get lost in a story or compulsive imagination. Maybe the idea should be transmedia can bring the child out in us!

Karen "Kay" Ross , it's crazy that this was published in 2014 and that we are still having to explain the amazing benefits of transmedia!

My friend Tyler Weaver expressed it very well in his book "Comics for Film, Games, and Animation" about how kids in the 80s after watching their favourite G.I. Joe or Transformer episode they continued the story themselves by playing with their toys.
