A Wonderful Pastime!

"Yertle the Turtle" is Dr. Seuss magic, both in the story and the illustrations. The app works like a charm, with read-it-yourself, read-to-me with manual page turn, and full auto play mode selection on the opening page. The reader is excellent, and his voice impressions of story characters add to the experience, as do the background setting sounds of a water environment. In read-to-me and auto play modes, the exact word being read highlights in blue so that a childs eyes can follow the story on the page and actually identify each word as the reader comes to it. I am excited to have found this for my granddaughter; no mindless games for her on grandpas phone, no sir! This combines entertainment, involvement, and learning into one, and is a great app for anyone who, at least from time to time, may need to pull a rabbit out of the hat in occupying a young childs attention while on the go.
