### 2/5 — It used to be better

*2013-05-14, version 1.7*

When we first got this app we loved it's interactive nature, they they added adds! That has dropped a 4 star rating to a generous 2stars. The adds ruin this app.

### 4/5 — Helpful

*2013-03-12, version 1.7*

Really does help

### 4/5 — Four Seasons

*2013-01-07, version 1.7*

This is a great app to use with my new students. I teach all the English Language Learners so they don't always know what the weather is like in our area. This gives a great overall view of the seasons.

### 2/5 — 4 Seasons

*2012-11-22, version 1.7*

The free version has advertising that is very intrusive, distracting, and sometimes inapprorpiate. I wanted to play this app with some 1st Graders but the ad running was for the movie "Killing Them Softly". Whom ever sold this ad space needs to reassess who their target audience is and to make sure that there is age approriate material in all aspects of the app.

### 4/5 — Good

*2012-10-13, version 1.7*

Good work!!!

### 3/5 — Ads in horrible place

*2012-08-16, version 1.6*

While I don't necessarily mind the ads, they are in a horrible place as they cover some of the activities my daughter likes to do with the app. Nice story though!

### 4/5 — Good game

*2012-08-15, version 1.6*

My daughter likes this a lot.

### 4/5 — Educational & Fun

*2012-04-13, version 1.4*

From the seed --> to a tree with fruit --> to a tree with autumn leaves and then --> to a bare tree with snow - every page describes what's happening during the seasons in simple words.

Interactive cleaning up the park, picking the fruit, shaking the leaves and so on
Little puzzles on the pages

Funny app my son (5 yrs) loves, thank you.

### 1/5 — Not really earth aware

*2012-01-22, version 1.3*

It claims to be an eco-friendly app, but has characters drinking from plastic bottles. Just another buy-in to the "green" trend without real thought or awareness at all.

### 3/5 — Fine Story

*2012-01-21, version 1.3*

After the last couple of updates, it now appears to be ad-supported. Though I understand the need to make money, the ads are intrusive. They block being able to tap on certain things at the bottom of the screen. Like when its time to help plow the snow. Its pretty much no longer possible. My kids end up tapping on ads and getting frustrated. Please fix it.

Aside from that my kids enjoy reading this book. Certainly worth the download as its free.

### 1/5 — Zombie adds why???

*2012-01-15, version 1.2*

No need to put adds like that on a kids book!! And over all the activities at the.

### 2/5 — Free but ?

*2012-01-13, version 1.2*

Seems cute enough but the ad button on the bottom is exactly where my daughter would press the screen.  I hate these kind of "free" apps that force you to buy more.

### 1/5 — No need for ads

*2012-01-07, version 1.2*

The addition of ads at the bottom of the page has destroyed a pleasant experience for children. They are not consumers and the ads disrupt the interaction at the bottom of the page. Used to be a favorite app but not any more. Would pay to have this ad free.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2011-12-29, version 1.2*

Cut app, too bad it crashes on first page. Ads huge, interfere with interactions. Have to delete before letting my daughter see it as it would only frustrate her. Would reload if problems fixed.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2015-04-26, version 2.1*

Waste of money.  I wanted a book to read to my students and it is a game--not a book. Very misleading on their web site where I found this app.

### 1/5 — It's a child trap for inappropriate adds.

*2013-05-25, version 1.7*

When you open the app at the bottom adult ads show. Pictures of girls from Vietnam? This is so inappropriate.  This is supposed to be children books app. Disgusting.

### 1/5 — Horrible!!! :(

*2012-08-18, version 1.6*

It didn't download and I checked the app store and it said installed even though it didn't! Don't waste your time getting this!!! :( :( :( :(

### 1/5 — ads ads ads

*2012-06-11, version 1.5*

I can't recommend this app. They have ads on every screen for things like credit cards, which have no reason to be in a kids app. The ads even cover up some of the animated graphics.

### 1/5 — Update ruined it

*2012-05-06, version 1.5*

This was an educational and cute teaching app....the update was not an update, just added Ads to make the app impossible to use,
corporate greed at its best! Don't purchase until these guys get over their greed.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2012-04-30, version 1.5*

It's a nice app but the ads at the bottom make it unusable.

### 1/5 — Had difficulty downloading

*2012-04-21, version 1.4*

My phone says the app is downloaded, but there is no icon for it on the phone.

### 1/5 — SLP

*2012-04-20, version 1.4*

Nice app, but the ads at the bottom were very annoying. I paid the in-app fee to have them removed and they came back!!! If it wasn't for that waste of money, I would have rated it five stars.

### 1/5 — Agreed, advert now makes this unusable

*2012-04-16, version 1.4*

So sad, but the banner ad at the bottom of the screen now blocks out quite a lot of the story elements.  You can still use the app just to evaluate it and decide whether you want to pay to remove the ad.  Otherwise, it's unusable, and could even lead to your child running up a bill on your phone.

### 1/5 — Yuck - easy $

*2012-01-30, version 1.3*

Trial is a copy of all their books to buy. Includes, Four Seasons - Earth Day, where you get a few pages of nonsense. "Interactive" - boring animation moving up & down.

This interactive books takes children through the green journey to help them understand how to keep the planed cleaner and better. Great book.

### 5/5 — Great to have

*2011-12-10, version 1.2*

This book beyond the fun interactive experience is teaching the children something positive about our planet. I like this one much better than all the shooting or walking around apps - books are the best and this is a top ranked one.

### 5/5 — Green light !

*2011-12-10, version 1.2*

Green story with great message and story. The interactions are great to help the story and the kids experience to help earth. This is a must have for every iphone and iPad out there !
