Pros: I love that the books are classic, beautifully illustrated books without the Nickelodeon sass that you find on so many other children's literary apps. I searched far and wide for an app that highlights the word when it's reading the book to you, and this one does that. I love this feature because I feel like it really helps kids learn to read. Cons: the different language features are frustrating. There is no lock on the other languages so my child constantly meandered into the different nationalities and I found her listening to stories she couldn't understand. They also present the new books as a selling point but there is no way of seeing just the new material. New books are impossible to find in the mix of all the books. But worst of all is their customer service. I emailed them three times and contacted them on their Facebook page to get help answering a simple question and never got a response. So frustrating. Don't bother buying the app.

I somehow mistakenly downloaded this app, and there is no unsubscribe feature. Please let me know immediately how I can terminate the free subscription before it renews automatically.

Downloaded the app and no stories loaded so I signed up for the free trial which charges me after seven days. There was nowhere for me to fly in and it is going to charge my Apple account but there is no where I can cancel it as this app is still not working nor have any of the stories loaded

No customer service when needed... Means this was a waste of my money!!

This thing is awesome I love reading books

Great app with tons of nice children's stories. Beautifully illustrated and narrated and with very useful interactive features to improve language and vocabulary learning.

This is the perfect app for children. My four year old loves it and my eight year old reads one story ever day. There Are so many books for my kids to pick.

Must have if you have little ones

I met one of the creators of this app, and he was awesome! And so is this app! Great for kids. Love all the stories and there are new ones being added daily. I am a nanny for 2 children and they love having the story read to them. It's also a plus that they can click on different objects throughout the story. I do wish that the 'read myself' option was a little different. I would love for my kiddos to be able to slide their finger across the words smoothly and continuously while reading along instead of being able to only hit 1 word at a time. Overall, great app! Share with friends!!!

Worked fine before. Now clicking on the books has the show up for a second then disappear.
