Great little app for kids. My 2 & 5 year old both love fox in socks, and this way we have it wherever my kindle is. Great for when we make little stops & some of us need to stay in the car. I can read it to them, my 5 year old can try by himself, or the app reads it to them. I love the fact that they can "turn the pages" themselves or set it to auto play. We have 3 of these Dr. Seuss apps, and all 3 have great narration that I don't mind hearing repeatedly. And it's a way to let them use my kindle that's much more educational than angry birds!

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic comes to life!

My 3 year old daughter loves this book. When I say an app for it, I had to get it for her. She loves watching the kindle as it reads to her and touching various things and seeing the words pop up. My only issue is that when you try to turn pages yourself, you have to click on the screen a few times before it moves. Kind of annoying when your toddler has a short attention span.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great e-book!

I often use my Kindle to entertain friends' children. I was excited to be able to get Fox In Sox, one of my favorites, for them to read. I love the fact that it has several options: read it yourself, or have it read to you. It is nice to be able to give them headphones (or not, if I want to listen in) and let the little ones hear the words as well as try to read them by themselves. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves it in print and would like it on their Kindle.

These are fantastic. You have the option to read them to your child, your child can read it or it will read to your child. The graphics are awesome. The sounds and other options as well as the reading are fun for kids. I recommend ANY of the Dr. Seuss book apps by Ocean house Media. (My kid is 3 and LOVES these).

This is a tricky oral read. The fact you can listen to the story several times ahead of attempting to read it is a real plus. I would view this as a story for school age children versus preschoolers.

This book is a classic and extremely difficult to read. The voice of the reader is professional and easily rattles through these tongue twisters. It's fun to listen to someone read though without tripping up.

If you have ever tried to read Fox in Socks and had trouble getting your Tweetle Beetle Bottle Battles in a muddle, then get this App! It's a lovely version of the book, same illustrations and text, moves and sounds to compliment! My son loves it and Dr Seuss is SO good for rhymes and words for young ones! We definitley recommend this!

Always loved this when my kids were young, and now I get to read it to my own grand-daughter.
Just love the flow of words, and the sound track can be left off or on - which is great.
