My 3 yr old daughter loves this app
Emma Bean's Mom

I tried the free version first because I was not sure if she would like it and she took to it immediately. She seemed so proud when she figured out how to drag the letters to make the word. Because she has a speech delay I was also very excited when she began repeating words from the app. Priceless!


Very simple and very good!

Just as great as the original bob books but interactive, well Done!


A great ap for kids
Mom-prof

This has great activities to help kids build phonics-skills. My daughter loves to read the e-books. She finds the traditional books a bit boring and tires of them quickly, but she sticks to this app longer and enjoys coming back to it. She can easily navigate through the app on her own, too. Nice work!


Not enough bang for the buck
Tanyat98

Thought I was buying an app that would drill my daughter through various forms of repetition just like in the box set of books. This app takes you through 1 page of each book not progressing the child like in the regular book set. After playing/reading the set twice, my daughter is bored. It would be a great app if they had an option to read the book to the child or let the child touch a word to read the story. Definitely not what I expected when I purchased this app


great, but want more
Pyoungcannon

This app is great and reinforces the early reading my kids are doing. It is truly educational and on par with Bob Books. I just wish there was more content; my kids finished it in one sitting.


Sounds gone
HandsCholo

Your update removed the voice and music. All that's left is some sound effects. My 2 year old loves the app and is learning how to spell from it so thanks so much, but please fix your update!


No sound

Love this app and the paper bob books! My 4 yr old has learned to read using this app! The app is fun, helps with letter sounds and is easy to use. I love all the different level challenges also. Love this app! I see why it won soooo many awards!


Too Short, Boring
Catchesthebabies

I am usually very generous with reviews, but this Bob Book app is just not worth spending on. For a paid app, it is only useful briefly, and then it's time to cough up more money to go on. My daughter is just learning to read, she has a set of Bob Books at home. There are 12 scenes in each section that is theoretically progressively harder. But each section has the same 12 scenes, so my daughter quickly lost interest in it. "Mom they're all the same". I pointed out that they were slightly different skills, and she went on, but it just wasn't very engaging.
