When I saw the press release of this app from Oceanhouse Media, I immediately check out the app further. Upon seeing the beautiful illustrations and wanting to find out more about this cute elephant character, I quickly request for a promo code to review it. Anyway, my review as below...

Description from the product page:

"Little Ellison just wants to sound like everyone else. He tries to make a big trumpet sound like his friends and his sister, but all he gets is a little toot! With encouragement from Mom and provocation from his imaginary friend, Weasel, Ellison discovers his very own voice — a jazzy sound that charms and entertains all within earshot. Ellison's proud mom reminds us all that it's ok to be unusual. In fact, "All the greatest elephants in history were unusual — that's what made them great!""

What's good?

* I love that we can also touch the objects in each page and discover the hidden sounds!

* I like the storyline where it tells how Ellison the Elephant tries so hard to make a trumpet sound in order to fit in with the rest of the elephants and finally discovers that his unique sound has a purpose which charms and attracts the attention of all the elephants around.

* The illustrations are beautiful and the narration is great!
