Technical glitch

I have a brand-new iPad; maybe Learning a-z needs to update their specs. Every time I touch an underlined word to get a meaning, the book goes back a page. Same problem with other titles and levels in this series.

It could be better....

As a special education teacher, I use many of the Reading A-Z titles with my students. I was excited to find that there were corresponding apps to go with some of the books. I am glad I only downloaded the free titles to sample, as I was extremely disappointed that there was not an option to have the books read to the student. I for one would rather pay more to have the audio to go along with the book.

Brilliant little stories!

I love these books for my K-5 son who is learning to read. He's growing bored with his readers from school, and these iPod stories offer refreshing content and the thrill of using the iPod to read, therefore he looks forward to these "books". Like the free books & will buy the paid ones too!
