User reviews

Great Fun!

This is a really fun, interactive way of learning to read. It will engage children and make them feel part of an enjoyable adventure whilst reinforcing essential learning. Highly recommend.

Finally as an app!

I read this and all of Thomson's other books growing up and I'm so, so, so happy to see them turned into an app. All the brilliance of my youth in modern glitz. Good job team!

Education meets entertainment !

The kids had fun and potentially may have learnt something!

Fantastic Educational Adventure

Spent an enjoyable time with my young son on our word quest. Great atmosphere and fun

A real find. Brilliant.

This is brilliant. It has really interested my son who normally hates books and reading. He finds it simple and easy to understand, but the plots are exciting and really pull him in. It is the perfect combination. I am so glad I’ve found this. Really grateful.
