I love the book and now I love the app! As much as I enjoy reading the story, having Grover tell the story is fabulous! <br /><br />As I was reading The Monster at the End of This Book, I noticed that I was able to pay attention to the(familiar)text on the screen and the images but I wondered if young children would even pay attention to the text...the narration/performance is so good a reader could overlook the text and still enjoy and understand the story. This is a book you can watch, as well as read. As ebooks evolve I'll be interested to see how kids relate to text paired with images and audio that could stand on their own without the text.Lisa Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904205498286269380noreply@blogger.com
