Customer Reviews
Used to be OK, but now unable to add books and to select other languages.
I have emailed them twice, no answer yet.
Update removed the ability to add books. I had previously paid for another language pack (Italian - but there were so few books available) and with the update that was removed with no way to add it back.
I'll change it to 4 stars once they fix the problems.
Don't buy it
I thought this would be good for school because we read a lot of books in English class but it is not. It's a waste of 3 to 4 dollars and I want my money back! I cant buy any books it's only the 10 books that they give to you that I read back in 6th grade.
