Along the way, the reader decides the direction of story, which affects Sophie’s shape, use, and mood!

Sophie the sweater is feeling abandoned on her hanger in a clothing store. Nobody seems to want to take her home. One day a certain someone comes in to the store and the great adventure begins. Sophie goes on lots of adventures - even scary ones - where she is created into new things such as a vest, a pair of pants, and even a bird’s nest, just to mention a few.

Both my kids (2 and 4 yrs) love to read this book over and over again, taking different paths every time.


Good x 2
steve_mann

This is really good stuff. Both the app itself AND the underlying message. My kids read / listen / play with it over and over again.


Love it
multidad

My family loves this book. We have bought a couple of other book apps in the past but this one is far better than all of them. Meaningful and educational story together with really nice illustrations.


Adorable story and important message!
Ella_T

My two kids (4 and 7) loves this adorable collection of stories about Sophie the sweater! A big bonus is that it teaches them the concepts of consumption and reuse, which I have not been very good in doing myself to be honest.


Like It
2much2doMom

My son likes this book because of all the different choices he gets to make. Some parts of the story are boring according to him ( 5 yrs old). It seems very creative to me.
