I downloaded this app for my son as the Grinch is currently his favorite story. The illustrations are exactly the same as the book and are animated which is great. There are some decent settings as you can turn some functions on and off, however I almost requested a refund due to the narration of the story to be extremely annoying. If I knew it was going to be that bad, I would not have downloaded it.
The original narration by Boris Karloff is a classic, this is an instant flop.
I really hope for the next update (If any) they replace the narration.
