The beloved classic “Dr. Seuss’s ABC” is now available for your iPhone or iPod Touch.
★ “Perfect for younger children still learning their alphabet.” – CNET
★ “Highly recommended. Encourages (kids) to make connections with sounds, letters and their meanings” – Appmodo

From Aunt Annie riding an Alligator to the Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz, Dr. Seuss teaches young readers the ABC’s through hilarious words and pictures, guaranteed to entertain any young child.

New features only available in this e-book include professional narration, background audio and enlarged artwork for each scene.  To promote reading in young children, individual words are highlighted as the story is read and words zoom up when pictures are touched.  By combining the original text and artwork of Dr. Seuss with features that entertain and promote reading, this e-book appeals to readers of all ages.

Two ways to read this e-book:
★ “Read to Me” — listen to the narrated story with words highlighted as they are read
★ “Read it Myself” — read the book in its traditional form

Additional Features:

★ Professional audio narration
★ Custom background audio for each scene
★ Features the beautiful, original art of Dr. Seuss
