This application is recommended for ages 4+.

The beloved classic "Dr. Seuss's ABC" is now available for your Android device.

From Aunt Annie riding an Alligator to the Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz, Dr. Seuss teaches young readers the ABC's through hilarious words and pictures, guaranteed to entertain any young child.

New features only available in this omBook include professional narration, background audio and enlarged artwork for each scene. To promote reading in young children, individual words are highlighted as the story is read and words zoom up when pictures are touched. By combining the original text and artwork of Dr. Seuss with features that entertain and promote reading, this omBook appeals to readers of all ages.

Three ways to read this omBook:
★ "Read to Me" — listen to the narrated story with words highlighted as they are read
★ "Read it Myself" — read the book in its traditional form
★ "Auto Play" — plays like a movie, automatically reading and turning pages. Great for younger children!

Additional Features:
★ Picture / Word association — words zoom up and are spoken when pictures are touched
★ Individual words highlight and are read aloud when tapped
★ Professional audio narration
★ Custom background audio for each scene
★ Features the beautiful, original art of Dr. Seuss

Please note: This app is based on the complete, original "Dr. Seuss's ABC" book not the shorter ABC board book.

    Exactly what I hoped for

    This is a book we love in our house, and this version is exactly the type of book I hoped I would be able to find for my beginning reader when I got the Nook. I love that she is able to touch individual words and hear them, and that touching the pictures allows her to both see and hear the word. Add to that the ability for her younger sister to hear the book in its entirety without having to maniuplate the touch screen and this book is a serious bargain!

    Loved it!

    My 4 year old loves this book. He listens to it in the car and loves to touch the picutres and words. I never thought a book would trump Angry Birds but this did :-)

    Great!

    I really like the way it highlights the words as it reads. And that my child can touch pictures, words and letters to hear them again. My 3 yr old really enjoys it!

    Wonderful

    My two year old doesn't yet grasp the concept of the Nook, but he loved this book. There are three different modes. You can touch text to repeat. And you can touch pictures and the word is said and the corresponding text pops up. Outstanding idea!

    Good job

    My daughter loved it. The book was lots of fun, lots of interaction. The only draw back was at times it was a little slow. I will buy more of these interactve books!!

    Kids love them!

    These Dr. Seuss app books are fantastic. Our kids love them. There are three different options to read each book: Read to Me, Read it Myself and Auto Play. There are ads for other app books at the start screen but that can easily be turned off if it is an annoyance. there is also a button to send you to the Oceanhouse Media website to see all the other titles available. This is the full length book, is very interactive and your kids will enjoy them. I started with one, i just loved it and now i am up to 8 of these app books.
