If you want to expand the learning for each book, Oceanhouse Media offers”Teachers Guides” for each title. Guides are PDF files that can be printed and includes  book description, subject, grade levels and a list of topics to open the discussion with the kids.

Each storybook app is easy to use, very well designed with stunning illustrations. Each book offers 3 reading modes: “Read to Me! “read myself” and auto play. To encourage and promote reading with early readers individual words are highlighted as the story is read. If when reading by themself,  your kids struggle on a word they can just tap on it to listen to it and move on.  As you read the each book, make sure to tap around … words zoom up for extra vocabulary!
