Review: Give me a good 'ole fashioned book, please!
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 7, 2013
We read this book on my tablet. With that being said, I should note that when my 18 month old daughter sees my Tablet, she goes bananas and throws a total tantrum if she doesn't get to play with it. For that reason alone, I hide it from her and only bring it out when she's in a good mood and I already have a transitition activity planned for after tablet time. I really enjoyed the book and the sing-song rhymes but I would have preferred to read it the good 'ole fashion way with pages she could tear. The book kept her attention for the first half but by mid-point, she was ready to go play the games she was used to. We gave it a second chance when we spent the night at my sister's. I had my 9-year old niece read the book and act out the pages without letting her see my tablet. This seemed to work much better. Overall, great story and pictures but I would have preferred to read it in an actual book.
