Sock Monster App Review

Do you always find that there is always a missing sock when you tidy up your laundry? Or always find an odd sock? It is strictly no outdoor shoes in my house and sometimes I have noticed some guests wearing mismatched socks! Maybe you have a sock monster at home? Sock Monster is a quirky storybook adventure for iPad with original hand-crafted artwork by exciting new author/illustrator Lorna Freytag. It is suitable for ages 2 – 5 years old. Lorna is a working mum and managed to create and produce Sock Monster whilst illustrating another book for a publisher, looking after her nearly-two-year old daughter and being pregnant with her second baby.

Read it Yourself with Ladybird App Review

I’ve always loved Ladybird books since young. They have so many classic stories and I recall I owned a series of hardback books with a ladybird on the side. Now Ladybird have turned some classic tales into ebooks. Ebooks have become increasingly popular nowadays as you have the potential to bring your whole library of books along on your travels. I personally have so many different ebooks for children on my iPad already. So what makes Ladybird so unique?

Me Books: The Brave Beast Review

Me Books store is an app that allows you to buy your favourite children’s books and customise the audio content in them. The ebook that I download is called “The Brave Beast” which is written by Chris Judge. Each page is beautifully illustrated, bright and colourful. This is a story which follows on from “The Lonely Beast”. The Beast is asked by some islanders to help investigate a mysterious noise on their island. He sets off by jumping down the air plane and then swims ashore. Next, he wanders through the quiet island to investigate the strange noise. He goes up and down the tunnel and through a forest. He then sees a tiny little bird who is lost and crying. In fact, the tiny little bird is the scary noise on the island. In the end, the islanders invite the bird to stay and gives him a job in the lighthouse.
