Is It Any Good?
ELMER AND THE LOST TEDDY has relatively simple features compared to several other in its genre -- kids cannot record their own voices, there is no table of contents, and interactivity is limited to tapping a word or picture to hear it spoken aloud. The professional narration is British, so some of the inflection is a little surprising. Still, the sweet storyline and, moreover, the colorful, creative, and high-quality illustrations make reading this story a really enjoyable experience. Kids will want to read and listen to it and tap on pictures to learn and reinforce words.
