This latest version with 270 poems has brilliantly entertaining audio from the award-winning actors Helena Bonham Carter, Bill Nighy, Tom Hiddleston and Harry Enfield.

The Times newspaper put iF Poems on their front page and gave it a rave recommendation. The Times Literary editor, Erica Wagner, writes: "You will have more than 200 classic poems at your fingertips, all of them (yes, I do mean all of them) perfect to read and recite for children and adults alike. It's the first poetry app for children, but grown-ups will get a great deal out of it, too."

The Guardian newspaper, in December 2011 writes: "So rare are the occasions when poetry tops a bestseller list that it would be a missed opportunity not to congratulate the iF Poems app...(poems) are jauntily read by Helena Bonham Carter and Bill Nighy and are accompanied by some quirky biographical sketches - John Clare: 'There was never enough to eat when he was young, which may have been the reason he was 5ft tall' "

And Vogue magazine, You magazine, Sunday Times and Intelligent Life (The Economist) have all recommended iF Poems. We are thrilled about all this, of course.

10% of all sales goes to help fund the work of Save the Children.

iF Poems has 270 classic poems from Lear's "The Owl And The Pussycat" to Belloc's "Matilda Who Told Lies And Was Burned To Death" to Yeats's "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death". We have recently added poems by Wendy Cope, Carol Ann Duffy, A A Milne and Ted Hughes. All the poems, we think, are a joy to pass down the generations, to share, to educate and enjoy.

Lovely (5 stars)
This app is just lovely. Wonderful selection of poems, and the poems read aloud are fantastic. I could listen to Tom Hiddleston read poetry all day long.

Great poems (5 stars)
I love the poem selections. The audible poems are amazing! I love to listen to them before bed or at lunchtime when I need an escape at work.
