Lora's app (5 stars) This is a great app! I turn on the sound and the children I work with can hear it while they are reading it. It helps them to learn the words and how to pronounce them. I also enjoy reading it myself. It is a good story about saving the trees. Beautiful Story, Wonderful App! (5 stars) My grandies love this story and the app allows them to have it read to them or read it themselves! It all depends on their age and ability. I love it, too
