Places
Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You’ll Go, $3.99, is just another quality release from Oceanhouse Media. If you’ve read some of my other children’s storybooks reviews you know I’m a big fan of Oceanhouse Media. They are clearly the leader in kids storybooks. That said, I didn’t like this one quite as much Dr. Seuss ABC or The Lorax, but that has more to do with the story itself and not the quality of presentation of the app. It’s just like the others. This app is available for iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. The book is the story of a little person in a yellow suit who makes his way through the world. He comes across a number of situations – some good, some bad, some scary etc. PlacesLike all Oceanhouse Media apps there are three modes – read to me, read it myself and auto play. Words pop-up and are spoken when pictures are tapped and the audio and video quality is very professional. The story is quite long. I, along with my five year old prefer the read to me mode. It’s a nice way to say goodnight. With Kindergarten starting in August I have a feeling I’ll be using read to myself mode a lot more.
