Ingenious!

What a wonderful surprise! The "Read it to me" mode is excellent for children learning to read, as they can follow the highlighted words as they are spoken. The narrator reminds me of Vincent Price, and is quite enjoyable to listen to as an adult. Touching various objects and characters results in their name appearing in text as well as spoken. Really great as a fun learning tool. All in all, five stars.
Great Christmas Classic

My youngest daughter is learning to read and she loves this app! She follows along as the words turn red as they are narrated and clicks on pictures to see and hear their names. Dr Seuss is a genius and this app really makes his work shine!
