Ratings and reviews

I believe this is a great way to read to a child if they can't read or if they are learning to read. So excited to see what other innovative literature comes to light. But a little worried that the adult children might use it as a way to babysit instead of sitting with their child and helping them practice to read themselves, and children need that one on one with their parents more than ever today.

Pete the cat was always my favorite book as a kid and now I still like it. I love to look back in my childhood.

Good memory here, it's a gas as a whole!
