Latest reviews of Ladybird Classic Me Books app for iPhone and iPad

Ladybird books
I thought that I was buying a book and I found out that all I got for my money was the opportunity to pay 2.99 for a book. I wanted more than just the picture of a book.
So fun
Im always looking for interesting ways to engage my child in learning and Im lately on the lookout for new ways to show her how to enjoy reading. We recently found The Zoo. My 2.5-year-old daughter loves The Zoo. There are so many animals to see and hear - she is always eager to engage with this book and learns so much from interacting with it. And whats even better is that we can record our own sounds for the interactive items so there can always be something new this book offers. Very clever app
Best storybook app for kids?
Like the title says, this may be the best book app weve found for the kids. Love these books and the draw and record stuff is too much fun. Hooray Ladybird!
Great app but needs support
This is a great childrens library but I have been trying to download multiple books the last few days and I keep getting errors when I try to open them. Please fix this issue and I will give this a 5 star rating.
Ok, but...
It seems like a nice app, but the only book I wanted to read refuses to download. Oh, well.
