Alligator at Saw Grass Road is an illustrated digital book from Oceanhouse Media that could be very easily seen as a bedtime story for little ones. The book introduces the life of an alligator and its experience with a red-bellied turtle.

The app provides 3 ways of reading the eBook, namely Read to me (listen to the story with every single word being highlighted when uttered), Read it myself (allows the user to read the story itself), Auto Play (plays like a movie, uttering and turning pages by itself).

Alligator at Saw Grass Road is the perfect way for your child to learn how to read and how to pronounce the words better. Also, when you tap something on the screen, the app pronounces it out loud. For example, if you type on ladybug you could see it written on the screen and pronounced.  Tap and hold on text to replay a paragraph and swipe on the screen for changing the page.

The professional audio narration ensures you with quality reading and pronunciation so you’ll have the best for the child. It’s a mixture of pictures and words combined in a way for that would definitely capture the whole attention of little ones.

What captured our attention was the fact that it comes with information about alligators, like a short description.
