Queenie La'Be and the Crazy Squirrel

What it is: an interactive book about a cranky old lady who one day finds a squirrel in her house. The squirrel refuses to leave and makes a mess of the house.

What you do with it: three ways of 'reading' the books: listen to the narration and follow the text, read the story yourself and auto play (automatic narration and turning pages). Touch the objects on pages to hear their names or a short animation.

There is a 'slider puzzles' game on some of the pages, with the original page artwork (with 8/15/23 pieces each puzzle, depending on the level of difficulty).

What we liked: the story, great illustrations and narration, picture/word associations, very easy operation.

What we didn't like: no option to repeat a page, the interactive features are a bit limited. The included game seems is not too inspiring and does not work well (we had some problems with making the puzzles move). Relatively high price.
