Ratings and reviews

This is a great resources for people and children around the world to hear stories and tales from Asia and the surrounding areas. Other than the problems that naturally present themselves from translation, some pages are missing pictures. Some are missing text. But all in all, we love this app and the charming stories and pictures it provides! I have some ideas on how to improve the app, if anyone associated with it wants to hear.

It was great and I gave it five stars until it just stopped working entirely and got stuck on the loading page. Making sure it was updated, force quitting it, and uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times didn't work to fix it so I've now uninstalled it entirely. We are sad to say goodbye, but after about a week of this, it's just not worth it.

I'm disappointed that I absolutely cannot find a single audio-book ("read aloud") for my child who cannot read, as it states in the description and shows in the screen shots. I really hope this is fixed, otherwise looks promising, but not for young kids who can't read without voice narrative
