Is it any good?
CINDERELLA - A PRINCESS STORY presents a similar storyline and vibe to the Disney movie version of Cinderella (albeit without the anthropomorphized mice and singing). The interactive elements are mostly limited to sound effects when various objects are tapped. Where the app really shines is in its gorgeous hand-drawn illustrations and the seamless way each page transitions into the next so that it's almost like watching a cartoon. At 40 pages, Cinderella is quite hefty as far as storybook apps go, and the Extras section contains cards with background info for each character and the promise of other interactive activities to come with future updates.
