5 Little Monkeys Collection #1

What it is: A collection 5 of interactive 'Five Little Monkeys' books by Eileen Christelow: 'Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed', 'Five Little Monkeys Bake a Birthday Cake', 'Five Little Monkeys Wash the Car', 'Five Little Monkeys Sitting in a Tree', 'Five Little Monkeys With Nothing to Do'.

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 and their name will be displayed and read out.

What we liked: excellent reading options (touch the word to have it read out, touch and hold to repeat the paragraph), picture/word associations, professional narration, sounds and sound backgrounds, visual clues,

What we didn't like: relatively high price, limited number of interactive objects, no animations, use of 'system' menus of iPhone/iPad for certain navigation actions.
