What it is: a storybook (about 20 pages long) with interactive elements.

What you do with it: read the story yourself or listen to the narration. Interact with elements on pages (actions, animations, sounds) by touching objects and using special 'action sliders'.

What we liked: the story, illustrations and animations, interactive elements enhancing the reading experience, professional narration, sounds effects, ease of use, no distracting elements, overall quality of the app.

What we didn't like: the way text the paragraphs are displayed (fonts, layout). Some text items on pages (e.g. notices) are not read out by the narrator. We missed some sort of page selector/index for better navigation.

Bottom line: fun to read and to play!
