Axel Scheffler’s Flip Flap Jungle
© 2015 Nosy Crow
This third Axel Scheffler Flip Flap app follows the exact same design as the first two (farm and safari). Cross a gorilla with a leopard and what do you get? A leopilla. This is another excellent bite-sized starter app that is also a good language enrichment experience. The fonts and text highlighting also make it a noteworthy reading experience. Using a familiar design technique, children mix-and-match the top and bottom parts of animals. There are 11 complete animals, giving you the possibility to make 121 total combinations, each with a well written narrated rhyme, with the option to turn on/off word highlighting. The art is by Axel Scheffler, illustrator of The Gruffalo. The app accompanies a printed board book with the same title, in the same spiral-bound, split-page board book format.
