    Cute and well executed!

    My sister really likes it. Especially Thing 1 and Thing 2. The app is very well made. It has lots of details to keep her interested while still being more of a book than a movie. I would buy it again. ^_^

    Great book

    My kids loved it... and so did I. Beautifully executed and laid out. Great voice over and reading choices. The bad: It lags many times on page turns and animations, and sometimes fails to recognize swipes.

    Never gets old

    My 3 year old loves this book sooooo much, he can't get enough of it. The autoplay thrills him, he asks for it at least a half dozen times a day!
