Go Away, Big Green Monster! for iPad

Ed Emberley's beloved and best-selling book comes to mobile! Cleverly diecut with bold colors and overlapping pages, Go Away, Big Green Monster! is an entertaining book that turns scary into silly, and empowers kids to take control of their fears. This interactive app builds upon the book experience by progressively revealing (and then removing) each piece of the Big Green Monster-- putting all the power in the child’s hands. Add the Monster’s eyes, hair, ears, nose; poke him to see what he does and watch him as he comes to life... but don’t get scared!

Reviews

Wonderful!
Magsteach

This has quickly become a favorite in our classroom. The choices of reading alone, reading with the author or singing along with a catchy jazz tune, make it very versatile. It's the perfect addition to our classroom library at an extremely reasonable cost. I highly recommend it.


Keeps freezing up...

Its very frustrating!!!


Great adaptation!
Appropo.co

This is great as a book and translates well to this interactive app. Good use of sounds, touches, and movements.


Great!

My 3year old can't get enough of this. She loves the book and just adores the book in song form. Well worth the money. Would of given it 5 stars but app crashes randomly.


Way overpriced for what you get

My daughters, 4 and 5, we're bored with it after 5 minutes. It seems the developers fixed the freezing issue, but it's still not a useful educational tool. There's just nothing to it... Not even any interactivity to speak of.


Adorable!
PCSteach

A must buy. Love that you can have the author read it to you.


Meh

Great song, great book, not worth $3.


Doesn't work
Booklover in NYC

The read along (any of the 3 different varieties) don't work. Very upsetting. Why does apple approve this garbage? Big waste of three dollars.


Great, but....One problem
Keramatisote

Everything would be perfect... Except it froze on me in the middle of a lesson plan (I work with kids with special needs). It had been working just fine, and just when I needed it the most, it decided to freeze! This was 6hrs ago and it is still not working :/


Freezing

I also am having trouble with it freezing in the middle of the story. Luckily I have the book, too. But very frustrating with my special needs kiddos
