Grandkids love it!
HighTechGrandpa

Beautiful illustrations and funny story. Kids loved popping bubbles and I loved reading along with them.

Engaging and Stimulating
SLP Gma

As an early childhood Speech-Language Pathologist, I marveled at how naturally viewers/readers were drawn to the interactive features. The delightful characters keep them engaged with the storyline and the varied feedback increases their responses. I will enjoy using this with my students as well as my own grandchildren!

Whimsical and Wonderful

I adore ACHOO GABOO. This sweet story is captivating and the illustrations are truly stunning. Exactly what a digital storybook should be.

Awesome App!
Missy Rossero

Great App! Just did it with my 5 1/2 and 2 year old and they want to do it again and again! Super cute! Highly recommend!

Fantastic Fun!

My 4 year old loves the interactive illustrations. Great app to inspire a love of reading in your little one!

So Cute

The story, illustrations and interactions are charming. All the little ones in my world love bubbles so how can you go wrong.

Cute Story
Bekahasauras

What a cute story! The silly theme would certainly keep kids engaged. I like the narration and graphics - thought they were kid appropriate. Some areas to consider improving: price - too expensive for a single book, in my opinion. The other area of development would be interactivity. I thought popping bubbles and swiping to change pages was fun, but would have liked to see each word light up as it was said - would really help with developing readers. It also would be good to be able to tap on a word and hear what it is. Finally, a page count would be helpful. I felt impatient as I didn't know how long the story was. Overall, good story - it made me smile.

Great First Interactive Story
DadAndThreeSons

Off to a great start, and I'm looking forward to more from this company in the future. I enjoy the illustrations, sounds, and theme. The book is just plain fun to use, and it has a real professional look. The swiping and tapping is swift and has a good feel; it's responsive with quick feedback via sounds and animations. It's a book, but kids will also love how they can be part of the story by interactively tapping; I think they are going to want to read and interact with this story over and over again.

Pop-up book style story telling
Patamobile

Adorable and fun story! My three year old son loves popping the bubbles, tapping on the monkeys (he would giggile every time they said "gazoontite!"), and had no problems moving the story along on his own. It reminded us of a pop-up book! Whoever the artist was did an excellent job as well. It's one of my son's favorites!
