### 3/5 — Wanted to like this one

*2014-06-12, version 1.2*

I was excited to try this app, but the illustrations are difficult to follow -- the cartoon style is distorted in many of the scenes and detracts from the excellent content. Photographs are much better for many individuals with intellectual disabilities. For $29.99, I expected much better quality.
