really ok i love the berenstain bears but it just why need purchase?
I should have read the other comments before downloading. It let's you read 2 pages then asks you to purchase to continue.
Doesn't work
Because it doesn't work it didn't show up the screen that is why I hated it
This crap is so stupid!!!!!! These idiots are just doing that because they want more money just for giving all of us 2 pages, then you gotta pay for the other pages!!! Give, every single book, ALL OF THE PAGES PLEASE, and then maybe, JUST MAYBE, I MIGHT give more stars. UNTIL THEN IT IS 1 STAR!!!!!
They learn
You have to pay to read the whole book.It is not worth buying.Every body complains about it.I tried to restart it but it did not work.Why don't they just make you pay for the app.
Won't work anymore. Doesn't get past the Sylvan screen, spent money on a broken app... rip off
It's bad don't download it
Carmella
First time playing, goes thru 2 pages and then you have to buy it. After clicking off of story and getting back on, it only goes to start up Sylvan screen and nothing else.
It only played once. My daughter really liked it but when she tried to read it again it didn't work. I reset my phone and tried to play it again and it didn't work. It sucks, please fix it.
It's perfectly fine I don't know what everyone else is talking about my siblings love it great job
My 8mth old loves it just downloaded another free one
First 2 pages are free, then you have to pay $4.99 for the rest of the book.
Does not work. Very disappointed

Only two pages are available in this app. After the end of the second page, the following message pops up: "Would you like to purchase additional content to unlock the rest of the story?" Deceitful practice.
You only get two pages for free then you have to pay for the rest
I don't like that it has to load
Fun
I won't even show anything besides the introduction. Can't even see what I'm clicking on.
Won't go past the 1st screen! Please fix
Yup should definitely read the comments. It doesn't get past the maker of the app. Its very disappointing. Immediately uninstalled.
I Love this show I still watch it now at 11
Won't go past first page :(
Ditto to Gwen Porter. Blank screen with a logo and that's it. Very disappointing
O love ot
Same problem it doesn't show anything so you don't see what you clicking this is ridiculous!!!

Be prepared to pay $5 for a book. Only the first two pages are free. Luckily I didn't show it to my children yet otherwise I would be force to spend 5 bucks.
