Realistic sound effects and brightly colored illustrations will delight young readers and keep them coming back for more!""
What's good?
* It is engaging and interactive and I love that we can also touch the objects in each page on the screen and the words pop out to tell you what it is!
* I like that we can move the objects on each page! It gives you a sense of control and being imaginative to move the objects around!
* Ben is a big fan of all things related to fireman and fire engine so to see a firefighter boat is a new discovery to him! Needless to say, this is one of his favorite page in this app.
* The illustrations are beautiful and the narration is great!
You can purchase the " Boats " app from the iTunes App Store.
I received no monetary compensation for this review, I was provided with the promo code by the sponsor to redeem the application for free from iTunes Store in order to facilitate my review.
