Reviews:
5 Star Review by The iMums! "One of my favorite parts of the story is the illustrations and the narration. I loved how the story interweaved an adventure with Wyatt coming in on his horse to “save the day” while having an educational twist."

Carissa Kluver, Digital-Storytime
"This app is part of a series of apps that focus on grammar and are aligned with common core state standards in the US. It is a solid education app, with all the enhancements that make a storybook engaging to digital natives. Each page contains a rich assortment of activities and interactive content, including Spanish translation for many parts of the story (under the phrase "secret language")."
