App Description

*APPLE STAFF FAVORITE*

AVAILABLE FOR $3.99 FOR A LIMITED TIME.

“It retains the style and intent of the original version, but it doesn’t skimp on multimedia features like read-along narration, objects that can be moved around the screen or tapped for sound effects and animation that dazzles without overwhelming the story or feeling too tacked-on.”
--Kirkus Reviews
