Description:

Living Books has re-issued the Just Grandma and Me, the first interactive storybook. The story is very sweet, the tale of a boy and and his Grandma spending a day at the beach. This new version includes two activities - Play in the Sand and the Sticker Challenge. There are also new sound effects and animations throughout.

Features:

• Vocabulary and reading comprehension skills are developed,
• Introduces foreign language skills
• Creativity is encouraged.

Reactions:

My kids love everything Living Books releases. This one is a special favorite of theirs, and Little Critter and his Grandma enjoy a carefree day - my kids enjoy the story and have played in it over and over. However, if you purchased the first release of this title, it makes little sense to pick this one up, just for the upgrade. Odd, isn't it? A re-release of a title? Usually, an upgrade patch is made available to current owners, instead of enhancing it and trying to get people to buy it all over again.
