Celebrate Thanksgiving with Nosy Crow Apps!

We’re celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend with a special promotion for our newest storybook app, Animal SnApp: Farm.

The app will be on sale for the unbelievably good price of 99c (69p) from Friday (November 23rd) until Monday (November 26th), before returning to it’s full price of $4.99 (£2.99) – don’t miss out!

Animal SnApp is The Gruffalo and Pip and Posy illustrator Axel Scheffler’s first every storybook app, and it’s truly remarkable. Combining an innovative slider game with six original rhyming farmyard stories, it’s sure to appeal to children aged 2 and up: the beautiful artwork and animation, friendly music and child narration, and simple and intuitive interactivity are perfect for the very young. And the rhyming stories, familiar subject, and our text highlighting feature are great introductions to early literacy skills.

The app is the recipient of an Editor’s Choice Award from Children’s Technology Review and glowing praise from dozens of parents, children, and reviewers. The Guardian called it “a characterful mix of storytelling, play and excellent illustrations.” PadGadget said, “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.” And Mashable wrote that, “Old MacDonald gets a wonderful British twist in this make-your-own nursery rhyme that is perfect for a beginning reader.”

You can find Animal SnApp: Farm on the App Store here – it will go on sale from Friday, according to each app’s timezone.

Have fun with Animal SnApp, and Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Nosy Crow!
