Following the huge popularity in Japan of cell phone novels published on mobile phones, a printing company is launching its first cell phone picture book.

According to Tokyomango, "the picture book will be read page by page, like a kamishibai—no scrolling, just clicking from page to page. It will include both popular children's titles and original content.

The company hopes to have 50 titles and 10,000 downloads by September."
