Responsive and well designed, this is part of an Italian series of apps that feature Dadas, small imaginary creatures that help children talk about and better understand common fears. As you move through the story, you discover hidden secrets, and participate in simple activities that pull you deeper into the story. There are multiple ways to play with each screen, and the Dadas can surprise you. One is great at chattering, one at making a mess, one at shouting, one at thinking, and so on. Content includes 20 screens, and simple, clear language to encourage budding bookworms. See also Good Night Dada. The illustrations are by Valeria Petrone; the music by Massimo Martellotta.
