Looking for Books with Simple Search

1. All the different categories we see in the Simple Search are like the shelves in a regular library. Today, we are looking for Fairy Tales, so, we are going to look for them by clicking on the Fairy Tales button.

2. If we want to refine our search further, we can select other categories as well. If we only want Fairy Tales that are for ages three to five, we can select the Three to Five button as well. To remove a category from the search, click it again to unselect it.

3. Now we can see all the Fairy Tale books for age Three to Five in the library. We can use the arrows in the results section to page through all the different books.

4. To start over with and do a new search, we can click the Trash Can button. To learn how to read a book go to the reading books section.
