What is the best way to make an ebook type app in buzztouch

So I have a couple of friends who want me to make an ebook for them. What is the best way of actually doing this? I thought of just putting images in the app. But the image feature doesn't have a pinch zoom feature. Has anybody here tried to make an ebook?

Hey Mammoth, Maybe images in custom HTML screens?

they will most likely reject it from the app store and make you submit to the ibook store if the app doesn't have extra features like a quiz or game or something...i used an image gallery to make a children's book that is in the app store called Blueberry Patch http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/blueberry-patch/id441841123?mt=8

ianjamespiano, thats a cool app and give me an idea. I was recently rejected for submitting and app the was basically a book. I need to add some other features to get it approved and you gave me a few ideas. Mammoth, I got rejected for submitting an app that was only readable material. So you'll want to add other features as well or Apple will push you toward the ibook store. Thats what they told me.

You could copy your images to a power point screen or write the info on slides in power point to get the pinch-zoom capability.
