Wondering what you'll be when you grow up? Now there's an app for that. Featuring clear watercolor illustrations and pleasant British-sounding narration, the 19 page eBook follows a predictable pattern, with about four animated surprises on each screen. There are a lot a typical professions depicted on the pages, including a doctor, teacher, mechanic and sailor. We especially like how you can choose which gender you want featured in the story. The hidden animated features are playful. Children can activate the X-ray machine and see what's inside the dad, make the airplane zoom off the screen, or throw the enormous pie up in the air. A "find the hidden dog" on each page is a fun feature.
In terms of interactive design, this is nothing special. But the story, art and narration is top notch. Engagement is increased because a dog is hidden on each page.
