Scans wrong book

No243No

Firstly, it’s challenging to figure out how to scan the cover of the book. Once it scans it incorrectly recognizes the book as “Red Riding Hood” when the book I’m scanning is “The Velveteen Rabbit. So unfortunately, my son and I are not enjoying the added 4D benefit of this book

Really cool interactive app with books!

I bought this book not knowing about the interactive application until I got home. We ended up downloading the app and it is really neat and cool! Not only do the kids get a book but the interactive part makes the book come to life! I cannot wait until my 1 year old gets a little older to appreciate the app much more! Really cool idea!

Little Red Riding Hood is not friendly.

Mr. Zir

The book and story are fine but the AR does not follow or enhance the story and becomes a major distraction in following the story. Doesn’t seem to work in landscape mode and very unclear what the controls are or what is expected of the viewer. Certainly not friendly to young users.

Best App Ever

Dream Reader Kids

We absolutely love these books! The app makes these beautiful books come to life. My daughter begs to use the app.

Cool concept but falls short

The pages (about three plus cover) come alive and character’s mouth moves but no sound. Back cover says music etc. Volume is on max.

Nice presentation of classic tale. I was a tutor in early intervention reading, I like the interaction in this book to help children with retention of story and interest in book. I would recommend this book for all ages but I think 3 and up will get the most from the interactive part. A fun way to introduce new technologies and still retain classic hands on books.

Doesn’t scan well

The books are a great idea and the animations are fun when they work. Unfortunately, they take too long to start playing if they play at all. With my android phone, I could only get the cover and the first page hippo to play. With an iPad, I could see all the pages, but it still took a long time and the image on the screen had to be lined up perfectly with the hippo on the page.

A Christmas gift they’ll love!!!

My grandkids are going to love these interactive books... I found three of them at the bookstore and I am amazed at this app!!! The kids have tablets and although their ages three and four they will be able to maneuver through the reality pages easily. What a great find!!!

This book Is incredible!!

I bought this book without realizing it came with an app. Once I set it up and got used to working it I showed my nephews and they went crazy! Being able to interact with the characters made them fall in love with the story
