CLOSED! Tale of Squirrel Nutkin Digital Book Review And Giveaway!

Buffer

Share a classic story with your child in a whole new way through the newest installment in the PopOut! series of unique interactive digital books. The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, is a beautiful and timeless classic originally written by Beatrix Potter in 1903. This new digital board book uses classic looking drawings, interactive animation and delightful sounds to engage your child in a way that will keep them coming back night after night to read about the mischievous squirrel and hear his funny rhymes come to life.

The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin digital book engages children in the story by having them do such things as spinning wheels, pulling tabs or tilting the screen from side to side to watch objects such as apples or pine cones slide. I particularly like taping the leaves when they fall to make them pop out of the picture. There is interaction with the story on every page but this is all done while incorporating art and music via classical piano that is delicately composed to honor this time honored classic. I appreciate that there is an option to either read it aloud or sit back and relax and enjoy a charming vocal performance by a lady with a lovely British accent mixed with the sounds of nature. In the Read to Me mode the words are highlighted to help improve reading skills which is a great asset to any parent. Kids can also go a step further and read it to themselves and if they need a little help with a word just tap it to hear it said aloud.

My children love to listen to the story and interact on every page with the Squirrels. My son Wyatt who is 15 months fights his way in front of everyone and tries to hit the picture the entire time to get the squirrels to squeak and move around. At just $3.99 for the iPad version or $2.99 for the iPhone version, The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin will make a wonderful addition to your digital library.
