The iPad premier
On the iPad for the first time:
A book by award winning author and illustrator Marlene Reidel. A wonderful story about the kinds of adventures only children can experience, about friendship, courage and the urge to explore.
The original book was first published in 2008 (ISBN-978-3-00-024562-6 / German) and is available wherever books are sold . As of now, the story can also be experienced interactively and enjoyed in new ways on the iPad and of course in english.
Willie and his friend Woodrow go on a foray through the great outdoors and explore their world as only children do. They encounter angry ants, dark, creepy shadows in the bushes and much much more. For the two courageous comrades no brush is too dense, no puddle too deep and even a rosebushs thorns can not stop them from venturing on.
Take part in the story, let the sun set and see what happens after dark, help the ducks get away from the prowling fox, explore the secrets of the gnarled old tree deep in the woods, let the two protagonists ride off on an enchanted deer, just to name a view of the interactive elements.
There is so much to discover. Watch for the the shimmering hot-spots!
