“THINK! You can think
any THINK that you wish.
Think of a race on a horse
on a ball with a fish!”

This omBook sparks children’s imaginations by first setting the stage for each scene, then giving the child a chance to imagine it themselves, and ultimately, leading the child to tap the colorful dancing question marks and see the story appear as Dr. Seuss imagined it! From the GUFFS that go by to the BLOOGS in the sky, there is no limit to what Dr. Seuss THINKS up. . . Follow along with the great doctor, or THINK up your own THINKS in this fun interactive storybook app!

New features introduced for the first time in an omBook include animated images and interactive scenes. Combined with the professional narration and background audio, young readers are encouraged to see what Dr. Seuss will come up with next!

By combining the original text and artwork of Dr. Seuss with features that entertain and promote reading, this omBook appeals to readers of all ages.

Rudolph delivers the message that there are no misfits in life, for everyone has a special quality to share. As the story opens, Rudolph is outcast for his shiny red nose.

His glowing nose lights the way, enabling Santa to deliver toys to all the little girls and boys!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer digital book includes background music and audio, enlarged artwork for each scene, and even audio clips from the timeless TV special!
