Review by developer: * In deze app vind je dieren die je ook in Africa kunt vinden. In elke scène kan je wel op een dier klikken, het dier zal een leuke animatie maken. Het verhaal kan voorgelezen worden, mar ook voor de wat oudere kinderen zelf gelezen worden. Er zijn met verschillende manieren gewerkt om deze app een aanrader te maken bij de kinderen, zo kunnen ze niet alleen klikken op een dier, maar ook nog eens met de ipad schudden.
