Axel Scheffler’s Flip Flap Dinosaurs
© 2018 Nosy Crow
7/18/2022 discontinued. This is the seventh (and sadly, the last) in the Flip Flap series from Nosy Crow. Each comes with an associated printed book (with the physical pages sliced horizontally). This app follows the same format as the previous editions, featuring 11 well-illustrated (by artist Axel Scheffler) dinosaurs. Cross the Tyrannosaurus rex top with a Triceratops bottom and you get a Tyranno-tops. The real dinosaur names are fun to try to read. 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. There are two modes: Read by Myself or Read and Play. The fonts, narration and text highlighting also make it a noteworthy language experience.
