Little Red Riding Hood by Nosy Crow
- hace 6 años
Nosy Crow has once again transformed a beloved fairytale into an instantly classic iPad app.\r
\r
Dressed in a red hoodie and rain boots, Little Red Riding Hood stars in this modern, cozy telling of her trip through the woods to see her ailing grandmother. Soothing strings and flute notes accompany the app, and Nosy Crow works with perfect voice ors who endow each charer with gentle attentiveness. Charers, with the exception of the Big Bad Wolf, are always polite to each other, and they acknowledge readers with questions and observations on every page.\r
\r
Small interive flourishes give little ones an ive role in the story. At any point, readers can use a two finger swipe to move around the scene, or they can use a pinching gesture to zoom in or out. When packing a basket for grandma, children can move Little Red Riding Hood and her mother around the kitchen in order to find more food to pack. There is even an element of choose-your-own-adventure fun. As children guide Red Riding Hood through the woods, they reach forked paths at which they can choose which way to go. One road might lead to a field where children can pick flowers for Grandma, another toward a bird whose feathers are to be gathered. In the apps finale, Red Riding uses the objects shes collected to thwart the wolf. It turns out the wolf is allergic to flowers, for example. Children will want to replay the app and see what happens when they choose different paths. During a second reading of the app, be sure to look for hidden extras. In one scene, children can see their own face reflected in a clear pond in the app.\r

Though you might know how the story ends, you and your children will still enjoy seeing Little Red Riding retold by Nosy Crow.
