Ebooks can be read on Apple’s iPhone and iPad portable devices. To do so, you need to download the ePub or
PDF version and use iBooks or another e-reader application on your device.
Using iBooks on the iPad or iPhone
iBooks is built into Apple devices such as the iPhone and iPad. iBooks can read ebooks in both ePub and PDF formats. It
is best suited, however, for reading ePub-format books, which flow automatically from page to page on your device’s screen. You can
easily increase or decrease the size of the book’s text, and iBooks instantly reformats the pages accordingly.

then tap the TAP HERE link to open the ebook in ePub format:

- To return to the ebook in subsequent reading sessions, open iBooks and go to the
Library. You will be taken to all the books you have previously downloaded
including the ebook you just downloaded.
Ebooks can be read on devices (tablets and smartphones) running Google’s Android operating system. To do so, you need to download
