Pros and cons of StoryToys Princess Rapunzel app for iPhone and iPad

StoryToys Princess Rapunzel app good for

My daughter woke up last night and was having a bit of a problem falling back to sleep, being Christmas I wasnt too surprised. So I asked if shed like to read a story with me. Since I just purchased Rapunzel, I wanted to give that a try (they also adored Tangled, so I mean - this was just perfect). Throughout the story, I couldnt get over how big the smile was on her face. Every page, every little bit about it, the interaction, everything was just perfect. Well worth the money, and Im sure Ill get the same out of Rumpelstiltskin as well! Dont hesitate. Pick it up. Supporting devs like this is the best way to bring interactive reading in the RIGHT way to our kids. And as an aside, the reason I mention that is because although I LOVE the other books, even the Dr. Seuss books - this is the only one that separates the interactivity of the story. Sometimes I dont mind it all being together, but I like that they can enjoy the story with no distractions and then have that broken up by interactions with the book itself. Kudos! My only other wishes: - Ability to skip the activities. - Make them a bit easier, sometimes the detection of moving stuff into the basket or pot can be a bit of a mixed bag. - Select by chapter/section - I know this wont happen, but maybe an unabridged version...? :) - More "unique" characters and designs, unfortunately they do look a lot alike. - I want to see Rapunzels hair dangling from the tower! Or wrapped behind her! I mean, my kids wnat to see that ;) - As with the previous mention... maybe have one of the actiities be climbing up her hair? :) Regardless, its worth the cost of entry. Keep up the good work, looking forward to check out your other books!
Rapunzel is excellent, it has huge interaction and great 3D pop-ups.
This book you need to get! As a new user to Ipad this was our first app and my daughter cant get enough. Worth getting over and over! I would like more free books from the company or in some kind of package.
The kids love these stories, they are a repeat read every night. They love the pop up interaction each page brings. Very hands on. Will you be doing more books?
This is hands down my toddlers favorite interactive book. Great activities, very fun and engaging.
My boys (5 and 9) and all their friends LOVE this and the full series of books by this developer. Logged in today to buy the newest. Whether listening to the story or reading by themselves, or practicing their French. I cant think of a single thing to ask of story toys to improve. Just keep them coming!

Some bad moments

Y did u skip the part where rapunzles hair gets cut off?! Thats my fav part! Plz add that and it also dosent need to be that much money!
The story of Rapunzel has always been one of my favorites and it is beautifully done in this application. The interactive nature of it is the best and very fun plus the artwork is beautiful. Thank you to the developer and please keep this in the App Store for all time
Featured on The Daily Appster podcast for 3/1/12. Great Work!
This is a wonderful app, which adds both story tellings and interactive play. Story telling cant get better than this.
By far the coolest story app I have downloaded for my daughters. They love it and the interactive features make these books great!!!
For some reason, I saw what I wrote for a different App here in the comments. This app is great and the other languages options is a just great!
