### 5/5 — Kid-tastic!

*2011-08-28, version 1.08.1*

My 3 year old, my wife and myself all love the original little critter books, but these are even better because they are so wonderfully inter-active. We love finding all the little critter friends like grasshopper and spider. We want get all the little critter book apps from OceanHouse, and then we are going to get all the Bearenstein Bear books too. Thank you for all the time spent making apps that allow parents to share their favourite childhood books with our kids.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2011-08-23*

I grew up with these stories and love sharing them with my kids.

### 5/5 — Makes toddler want to read

*2011-07-21*

My daughter became familiar with the series through the app.  Within one reading, she wanted to "read it by herself.". And again and again.  So I feel the app did its job.  The story is cute and simple in a way that the kids and parents enjoy.  It is just right!

### 5/5 — Great app!!!

*2011-06-15*

My 2 1/2 year old loves it!!!

### 5/5 — We like it

*2011-05-03*

What can I say. Well done, cute story, good quality app. Not one of those just thrown together. My kids love it so I love it!

### 5/5 — Little Critter

*2011-04-29*

This is a wonderful children's story. I bought it for my iPad, so that when my grandson is over, he might enjoy. I use to buy all the Mercer story books for his father when he was a little boy. I think the one where he goes to the doctor or dentist was helpful.....it took the fear out quite a bit. It's been 28 years, since I saw that book, so a little hard to remember. Can't wait to try this one out.

### 5/5 — Kids loved the books and now LOVE the apps!

*2011-03-29, version 1.08.1*

We are all fans of the books and glad to find these interactive stories for the iPad.  Keep them coming!

### 5/5 — Good value

*2011-03-21, version 1.08*

My 3 yr old son can't get enough of the Dr. Seuss and Little Critter books. In fact he prefers the Little Critter books, because he love to search for the spiders, mice and grasshoppers thru out the pages.

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2011-03-08, version 1.08*

My kids' favorite book comes to life!  Great app, a definite must buy.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2011-03-05, version 1.08*

Very good app for my kiddos, they love it.

### 2/5 — d

*2011-11-19*

most of the books are great representations of the original books.  i think this one falls short and is missing too much content (words/pages).

### 3/5 — Done in 5 min

*2016-11-20*

My 4 year old blew through this app in 5 minutes. She enjoyed it and then she was done with it. When I buy an app I'd like it to hold her interest over the course of a few weeks or even months, so a few minutes of enjoyment was slightly disappointing.

### 4/5 — Ms

*2012-11-10*

As a home tutor, this book engages my reluctant readers with its colourful illustrations, simple vocabulary, common experiences and interactive features. Students are happy to revisit and enjoy this game again and again. It also works as a writing stimulus.

### 4/5 — Great books!

*2011-04-12, version 1.08.1*

We were looking at all the Dr. Seuss books and came across Little Critter.  Very enjoyable and keeps the kids entertained.  We want more Little Critter books.

### 5/5 — Awesome books!

*2023-08-08*

I use these books in language therapy.  The kids love they are interactive, and I love that I can control who reads it.  I Can work on so many language and behavior goals with these books!  We need more!

### 5/5 — Love little critters

*2019-07-07*

My girls read these now to the grand daughters

### 5/5 — An awesome Mercer Mayer app

*2014-04-08*

This app ("All by Myself") is more like a visual audiobook, but it lights up the words as it reads too... which is very nice for starting readers.  I highly recommend this charming story in book and App format.

Oceanhouse has three of Mercer Mayer's Little Critter books in app-format, and a bunch of Dr. Suess too.  Another company has done a cart-over of the Mercer Mayer's "Just Me and My Dad" Cd-Rom.  

Note to Oceanhouse:  The Heart on Mom's dress currently shows the word "Heart," but it doesn't say it out loud.  Hopefully this will be fixed on an update (?).
