Rita The Lizard

What it is: a book about a lizard (who thinks she is a chameleon) and her animal friends. 14 pages with over 250 interactive elements.

What you do with it: listen to the narration or read the book yourself (plus there is an option to record your own narration). Touch objects on pages for interaction and fun animations.

What we liked: the story (about friendship and identity), beautiful illustrations, subtle animations, humor, ease of use, sounds and sound backgrounds.

What we didn't like: we would prefer more traditional layout (the text paragraphs are displayed on a layer which slides in and out which makes the objects under the layer difficult to reach). Some of the interactive elements are really difficult to find.

Bottom line: rich colors, beautiful illustrations and tons of interactive details are going to make this book a sure favorite with kids.
