What it is/what you do with it: an interactive version of the book by Melinda Long. About 17 pages. Two ways of reading the book: listen to the narration and follow the text or read the story yourself (or have the story read to you by a parent). Touch the objects on pages and their name will be displayed and read out. Touch highlighted words or labels on the pictures for extra facts.

What we liked: the concept/story. Good educational value. Excellent reading options (word highlighting, you can touch a word to have it read out, double tap to repeat a paragraph, picture-word associations, interactive glossary). Professional narration. Sounds and sound backgrounds.

What we didn't like: we wish there were more interactive features.
