Bert Baboon is a great iPad storybook app. It is highly interactive, offers an original story with beautiful illustrations and a great narration. The kids at Fun Educational Apps liked it a lot. They had to read it several time to discover all the various features.
If you read Bert Baboon with your kids make sure you have some time as this book app will take a lot longer to read thanks to all the interactions and games spread out through out the book. First, Fun Educational Apps liked the story. It offers a nice introduction to approach the discussion about self esteem and self acceptance with the kids. Going over the story your kids will discover that sure, if you are different you can try to hide it but sooner or later, your true self always come back. The story help kids to look at differences and realize that it is not because you are different that you are not likable.

Finally, if you think you missed some features, go to the info page that will lead you to the index. You will see all 21 pages and under each one a summary of what you can do. Once there, note that you can easily go back to the story simply by double tapping on a page.

Overall, Baboon Bert is a top fun educational app. It offers a great story and a rich interactive experience for the kids... An iPad Storybook app that your kids will want to read and play over and over again... My kids did and hope yours will do to.
