    My 3 and 4 year olds love this! They like your typical storybook app well enough but once they've gone through them once tend to quickly lose interest, making its continued presence on my phone somewhat pointless. This app solves that problem by adding interactive tidbits to each page which slow them down a little and make going back and hearing the story over and over again likely. The interactive details are not so much as to make this more of a video game type app; the story is definitely front and center. I can see myself pulling this out for them next time we are in the grocery store or waiting for food at a restaurant. Definitely worth the price!

    Down-loaded this app on my i-pad to entertain the grandkids and friends' children who are always asking if they can play with "grammies" i-pad. I could definitely see this becoming a pbs animation series. Love the fact that they can either read it themselves, have someone read it to them or listen to it being read by the narrator! Wonder if up-dates could possibly include different interactions to keep it interesting for a long time! (This being said by someone who knows nothing about the nature of updates!)

  • Fantastic little story book!

    Very clever illustrations in a charming little book decidedly aimed at toddlers and preschoolers. It is musically interactive, and delightfully creative. I did download the iPad version first, and found loading problems, but then again, I have a very old iPad and cannot expect every new thing to work on it. Works fantastically on my iPhone 5. Also, I contacted the creators and they responded immediately, explaining that there is an update coming, once Apple finally gets around to posting it. Great job!

    I thought this was an interesting take on storytelling, and my 2.5 year old enjoyed trying to find the action on each page. As an art teacher parent I loved the unique and creative images. I thought the vocabulary was far too advanced at times if it is catered to 2-3 year olds and the accent of the narrator was a little distracting for my very early reader. Beyond that we enjoyed the experience and my son has continued to go back to it for more.

    This app has just about everything you could ask for from a digital children's book. I'm a really big fan of the narration feature that highlights the words on the page that the narrator is reading. The illustrations are fantastic, & they come with charming and serendipitous animations activated by touch interaction. It works great on my iPhone 5 & my iPad 1. Five Stars easy.

  • Cute story but could be even better

    Nice illustrations and music. Some suggestions:-Should also work in landscape mode-there should be two or three interactions per page, not just one. -some of the interactivity was a bit lacking -the child shouldn't have to touch the little birdie to figure out what they can do on the page. The designer could have created a subtle visual call to action so they know what to touch.
