Ellison the Elephant Trumpets His Arrival on the App Market

Ellison the Elephant, the second omBook* in Oceanhouse Media’s Kidwick Books series, is now available for Apple and Android devices for the special introductory price of $1.99.

Little Ellison just wants to sound like everyone else. He trys to make a big trumpet sound like his friends and his sister, but all he gets is a little toot! With encouragement from Mom and provocation from his imaginary friend, Weasel, Ellison discovers his very own voice — a jazzy sound that charms and entertains all within earshot. Ellison’s proud mom reminds us all that it’s ok to be unusual. In fact, “All the greatest elephants in history were unusual — that’s what made them great!”

The omBook features Oceanhouse Media’s signature reading options (Read to Me, Read it Myself and Auto Play). To promote reading in young children, individual words are highlighted as the story is read. Children can also find hidden sounds by tapping within the pictures. Additional features include professional narration, custom background audio for each scene, and pages that pan and zoom to accentuate the colorful, original art.

In addition, in honor of the third anniversary of Oceanhouse Media this month, they’ve put all 10 Little Critter omBooks on sale for 99 cents on the App Store and Android Market.
