Pamela Possum Goes To Letter Land
Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.

What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Pamela Possum Goes To Letter Land is primarily memory-style games matching uppercase and lowercase letters with their sounds. Changing the difficulty level of the games changes the sizes of the memory puzzles. A gallery of letters is included, and some puzzles require putting letters in alphabetical order. An adventure mode takes kids through several series of games with different combinations of letters, and there are single- and two-player options.

Is It Any Good?
EnsenaSoft has found a model that works relatively well; this game is set up the same way as their Art Museum app. Pamela Possum is a cheerful companion to lead you through letter land, but she doesn't provide any hints or instruction, so kids will already need to pretty much know their letters to get the most from these games. They can learn in the alphabet gallery, and it's nice to have the different options for how to play, but the lack of saving progress keeps the app pretty basic.
