in Books

[prMac.com] London, United Kingdom - Independent publisher Nosy Crow is celebrating Thanksgiving with a price drop for its award-winning rhyming book app, Animal SnApp: Farm 1.0.1 by Axel Scheffler. The app, which is available on the App Store for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch, will be $0.99 USD (69p in the UK) from November 23rd through to November 26th. The standard price for the app is $4.99 (2.99p).

Animal SnApp: Farm is The Gruffalo illustrator Axel Scheffler's first storybook app. Combining an innovative slider game with six original rhyming farmyard stories, it has an easy appeal for children aged 2 and up. The app features beautiful artwork and animation, friendly music and child narration, and an intuitive interactivity that is perfect for the very young. The rhyming texts, familiar subject, and Nosy Crow's text highlighting feature are excellent introductions to early literacy skills, and the simple activities and stories teach a gentle set of life lessons.

"We've been thrilled with the response to Animal SnApp since its release," says Tom Bonnick, Digital Project and Marketing Manager for Nosy Crow. "This is a simply beautiful app, with immense appeal for young children, and we hope that this Thanksgiving promotion means that it can enjoyed by a wider audience than ever."

Animal SnApp: Farm is the recipient of an Editor's Choice Award from Children's Technology Review. The Guardian called it "a characterful mix of storytelling, play and excellent illustrations." PadGadget wrote, "Axel Scheffler's engaging illustrations and the apps use of animation compliment the narrative of each story. The app includes sounds and background music that add to but never overwhelm the story ... Animal-loving pre-schoolers will adore playing AnimalSnApp: Farm, and parents will likely enjoy the stories even after countless re-readings."
