This teaches acceptance no matter what a person looks like. Looking forward to reading another adventure about Heckerty. ### 5/5 — Meet Hekerty *2013-01-13, version 1.1.3* A wonderful experience for beginning readers! Charming. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2013-01-08, version 1.1.3* Wow. What a lovely interactive book. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Ten out of ten! *2012-12-22, version 1.1.3* About once every ten years, or so, a game comes along with the charm of Heckerty...I can not wait for the sequels. Ten out of ten. ### 5/5 — Terrific product!! *2012-11-28, version 1.1.1* Very well done. ### 5/5 — Designer *2012-11-17, version 1.1.1* What a terrific story and app! Additionally special that it's made with love for kids on the spectrum. ### 5/5 — We are in love! *2012-08-09* It is official, we have gone green and are in love with this adorable witch. My son wants to go on more adventures and said "she's helping me to read because the words pop on the screen when she talks, cool!" Thank you for creating something my 7 year old thinks is fascinating, well done!! ### 5/5 — We love a witch with a green face! *2012-08-08* Heckerty is delightful. We loved her adventure and would love to go further on her journey with her. Illustrations are adorable and the voice so sweet and funny. Heckerty will no doubt entertain the young and the old, but young at heart, audience! ### 5/5 — Cute story. Excellent text presentation. *2012-08-03* Love the synchronization of voice and text reveal! Most books present distractions from the focus on the written word. This story has minimal distractions and fabulous spacing so that each word is revealed as spoken. Great for struggling or new reader. ### 5/5 — What a wonderful ides *2012-06-05* Heckerty is a brilliant way for young children to learn how to read. I think it would also be a fantastic tool for kids learning English as a second language. I work a lot in China and think this product would be a dream for Chinese kids learning to read English. And it's not a dry educational tool -- it's funny, engaging and colorful. ### 5/5 — Best! *2012-05-26, version 1.0.4* Very entertaining! Loved the voice over! My 6 yr old daughter wants to hear it again. Waiting for more adventures, ### 5/5 — Enchanting! Fun for little and big kids of all ages. *2012-04-29* I bought this app for my kids on the recommendation of a good friend. They're 5 year old twin boys, and were totally enchanted by the story. There are clickable animations on each page, and all of the words are clickable. They click away and make silly combinations with the words, and echoes, and stuff like that. I'd highly recommend it for kids of any age, and to be honest - I found myself clicking around the app quite a bit myself, and I'm 44! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Cute, but too short *2012-07-14, version 1.0.4* Really cute book, my daughter really likes it. But it's shorter than I would have hoped. Also, the URL for the coloring pages links to a non-existent page. ### 3/5 — Full of promise... *2012-05-24* As both a new parent and preschool teacher, I eagerly purchased this app based on its excellent rating and reviews. The presentation is very good, which stands in contrast with the somewhat dull story. I found myself at the end of the book, still waiting for the story to really begin. Maybe it is all a matter of taste, but I don't see myself ever reading this story again. ### 4/5 — Hegarty *2014-03-08, version 1.5.1* There are some purchases, but there are also two games and one story. The story is interesting and you can also get a signed picture onto your ipad from the makers of the game. The ages are 5-7. ### 4/5 — A Fun and Funny Witch *2012-08-22* (This is an updated review) I'd previously reviewed "Meet Heckerty" and given it a lower star rating owing to some technical problems and what seemed to be a lack of tech support. I've since been contacted by the developers who very nicely explained the miscommunication and have a fix for my problem (repeated crashes) on the way. So I'm now happy to give "Meet Heckerty" 4 stars, because the story of a witch whose face turns green is fun, the illustrations and animations are very nice, and the narration (by Heckerty herself) is a treat: the voice of a real storyteller. Note that because the illustrations have fine detail and are somewhat small on the page, "Meet Heckerty" is going to be a more satisfying experience on an iPad than an iPhone-sized screen...though the images are pleasing even at the smaller size. Also, be sure to read the "Hints and Tips" before jumping into the story in order to enjoy various features like hearing individual words pronounced when you tap them. ### 4/5 — Adorable story! *2012-05-02* My 3 year old son is a bit scared of witches but on a friends recommendation I bought this app for him. I was dreading that at the sign of the first green face he'll shreak and run away... But nothing of that sort happened! Instead, he listened to the entire story with a smile on his face! Only towards the end when the witch flies away did he get a tad bit scared but overall I think this story is going to become a permanent fixture at bedtime in our family! ### 5/5 — Wonderful! *2015-02-01* Yes, it's that good. Great graphics. Captivating way to learn English. Good for children and adults getting started on the English language. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Greatness *2014-10-16, version 1.6.1* This is the best storytelling app out there, I have it for my kindle as well. ### 5/5 — We want more! Heckerty rocks! *2014-06-13* My five-year-old is an advanced reader and this app keeps her busy. We just wish Heckerty would have more adventures for us to buy! ### 5/5 — Loved!!!! <3 *2013-08-29, version 1.1.6* My girls loved Heckerty!! They were laughing and smiling listening attentively!! :) Please bring us more!! ### 5/5 — Great *2013-08-26, version 1.1.6* Loved this cute Witch ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — My nieces love it! *2013-08-21* Kept them quiet at a recent wedding and works great out at dinner. I put it on my iPhone so I can let them play when I'm babysitting. Makes me feel like a better aunt that they're learning something. ### 5/5 — Love Heckerty! *2013-06-04, version 1.1.6* Great app! We would LOVE more Heckerty books! ### 5/5 — Genius *2013-04-23, version 1.1.6* What fun - genius!!! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2013-04-09, version 1.1.6* Love Heckerty, a friendly, not scary witch. Great interactive app for kids. Can't wait for more! ### 5/5 — Great story *2013-03-30* Downloaded this for kids while traveling to school and they were laughing and reading out loud. Great time, need more stories! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
