App Description

A wizard transforms a childless couple's tears into a baby boy, only to later reclaim the child. Only the boy can discover the spell-breaking secret that will bring him back to his parents. By the author of Sister Yessa's Story.

The Teardrop Baby is a part of the Auracle line from Auryn Inc. The app is based on Karen Radler Greenfield’s book by the same name illustrated by Sharleen Collicott.

Key features include

Personalization of voice and text:
★ Kids can become their own narrator or listen to their parents narrate the book.
★ Interactivity allows kids to personalize the sentence, create new action words and sharpen their vocabulary skills

Features on each page

★ Easy Switch between text and illustration to experience the story in a unique fashion
★Karaoke effect – The words are highlighted as they are read
★Touch a word to hear it being spoken in Read Myself mode

Three ways to read the book.

★"Read to me" - Listen to the narrated story with words highlighted as they are read. After the narration finishes on a page the child can interact with objects till they are ready to move to the next page
★"Read myself" - Read the book in its traditional form
★"Auto Play" - Pages advance automatically once the narration is finished. Useful for those long car rides when you want the child to have a complete book experience

The lite version contains the first six pages of the original app with all the functionalities. The user also gets an overview of rest of the pages in thumbnail format.
