On Beyond Zebra! - Android version

What is it and what do you do with it: an interactive adaptation of Dr Seuss's classic (about 32 pages long). Three ways of reading the book: listen to the narrated story with the words highlighted, read as a 'traditional' book and auto play (automatic reading and turning the pages). Tap on the pictures to hear the associated words read out.

What we liked: the story. Original artwork. Professional audio narration (with the option to record you own narration). Sound backgrounds and sounds. Excellent reading options (picture/word associations, words are highlighted when read by the narrator, you can tap on a single word to hear it read aloud or long press to listen to a paragraph).

What we didn't like: the ads for other apps have to be manually turned off (they are 'on' by default).
