Description
"Each rhyme is beautifully enhanced with colorful illustrations that come alive... Once your toddler selects one of the stories from the main menu, the Mother Goose Reader gets to work and recites the story in a clear, concise and soothing voice." AppAdvice.com July 14 2010
A jewel in the memories of many adults, the Mother Goose collection has been a staple of young reading for decades, and our beautifully-illustrated, interactive edition is a wonderful introduction to the delights of these classic children's stories. The stories are enhanced with prerecorded “spoken word” audio tracks, which can be played to help make reading easier and more enjoyable. Children and their parents will also find nine special lyrical tracks to accompany various segments, and the title features a fun recording option to allow kids to record their own voices reading the stories.

Needs Music in sync with actual notes of the rhymes
The rhymes are spoken by a lady somewhat in tune with the original rhymes. Since there is a dearth of rhymes apps this app is still useful - better than nothing.
However I'm a little disappointed that these spoken words are in no way in tune with the actual musical notes for each of the songs. Hope the developer updates this adding background music in tune with the actual notes of the rhymes.
It does help in "learning" the rhymes for a 6+ year old - as each word is spoken that word is highlighted in text. However the musical quality is missing.
