Amazon Launches New Daily eBook Promotion

Amazon has built on its experiences with that big eBook sale from a few months back. Today it launched a new program to pick and promote 1 eBook title each day.

The Kindle Daily deal works much like Amazon Free Daily Android App. One book is chosen each day. Amazon discounts heavily the ebook heavily and promotes the title on the Kindle facebook page as well as on Twitter. Today’s eBook is The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, by the Newbery award-winning Kate Dicamillo.

Amazon has more details on the book:

Edward Tulane, a china rabbit, is the main character in this thoughtful tale by Kate DiCamillo (Candlewick, 2006). Edward is dearly loved by a young girl named Abilene. One day he is lost over the side of a boat. His journey leads him to a older couple who dress him like a girl rabbit, a hobo and his dog, a young girl and her brother and, finally, to a doll shop. Along the way, Edward learns to love the people he encounters. He also learns that family members can be cruel to one another; that hobos have family that they love dearly and don’t want to forget; that no matter how much you love someone, she may still die; and that no matter what happens in life, never give up on love. Tony Award-winner Judith Ivey infuses each character that Edward encounters with a unique accent and aura, and accurately portrays their emotions.
