Alligator at Saw Grass Road - Android version

What it is: an educational book (about 15 pages long) about the life of an alligator and her young.

What you do with it: three modes of 'reading' the book: listen to the narration and follow the text, read the book yourself (or have the story read to you by a parent) and autoplay. Touch the objects on pages and their name will be displayed and read out.

What we liked: good educational value, quality artwork, excellent reading options (words are highlighted when read, you can touch a word to have it read out, tap twice to repeat a paragraph, picture-word associations), professional narration, sounds and sound backgrounds.

What we didn't like: the pages are very static, there are no interactive elements (apart from the read-out features).

Note about ads: the app has an option to display news and ads from the publisher but this option can be turned off in the settings menu.
