What a sweet and clever app!

An absolutely delightful app for young kids to learn to read. The characters are bright and entertaining, and speak in charming rhymes, making learning, basic letters, easy and game

Fun and instructive

George Canine is a reading app with bright colours and cute characters, but, unlike other reading apps, no distracting bells and whistles that detract from learning. Its content is also subtly imbued with behavioural lessons such as ‘trying your best is more important than winning’. I highly recommend this app.
