With eToys dead ( not updated in over 2 years )
Not true at all - eToys are in *BEST* shape of their live!
Same eToys that run on OLPC will run on Linux, Mac, Windows: Compare to the Squeakland version, this new version is cleaner, have very good online help (called Guides, on the top left). Navigation is much easier I think.
Right now, you have to download VM and Image separately:

http://tinlizzie.org/olpc/OLPC-Etoys080211.zip (equivalent but much nicer then Squekland version, and will replace it compatibly in the near future I believe) VM from:
http://www.squeakvm.org/index.html (need to follow to your OS section)
Give it a try, if you used the squeakland eToys version I believe you will find it a noce continuation and will be surprised,

And no books in print.
What have teachers replaced eToys with? ( seeing that Squeak is a dead language )
