### 5/5 — Kids and adults will enjoy

*2013-04-18, version 3*

Nice app for introducing children to the impact of plastics & waste on the environment. The pop up facts had a lot of good information for parents and teachers. The story revolves around Earth Day, but the underlying message is much broader - would be appropriate for any time of year.

### 5/5 — Love this

Great pop-up facts when you touch the screen.

### 5/5 — Excellent storytelling, beautiful images

*2013-04-08, version 2.0*

I love this storytelling device; using a well known framework to tell a whole new story. It allows for "cutting straight to the chase."
The illustrations are rich in detail, and keep the listener/viewer engaged through the narration.
I've shared this with children of various ages, as well as adults, and they have all loved it.

### 5/5 — Great Story and Amazing Art!

This is one of the coolest things I have seen in a while. With an interesting and modern retelling and whimsical and beautiful art to accompany it, this is definitely a one of a kind app.
