What is it and what do you do with it: an interactive storybook based on the Disney TV special. About 19 pages long, 3 reading modes (read to me, read by myself, autoplay). Extra feature: Sofia's Royal Theater (animated sticker scene creator).
What we liked: the story. Nice illustrations. The 'puppet theater' activity complementing the storyline. Professional narration and voice acting. Sounds and sound backgrounds. Ease of use. Overall quality of the app.
What we didn't like: the reading features could be better (e.g. words are not highlighted). Interactions in the storybook are limited to simple animations.
