Dr Seuss Books for the iPad on “Back to School” Sale

Posted on September 2, 2011

If you are like myself and are looking for English language books here in Thailand for children, then you will know that the iPad is a godsend. As I have mentioned before, we can now get talking books here in Thailand for attractive prices. Often cheaper than buying the "tree version" from bookstores like Asia Books. Some good news this week for lovers of the Dr Seuss books is that they are having a "Back to School" sale for many of their books. I just bought half a dozen of their books that were $3.99 and are now being sold for $1.99 this week. You can get some classics such as Dr. Seuss's ABC, The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, Fox in Socks and There's a Wocket in My Pocket for only $1.99. There are more so follow the links. BTW, I also bought Just Grandma and Me and Just Me and My Mom by the same app developer. All of these books are great for children of expats and for Thai students learning English. We are using them in our Kindergarten.

Disclaimer: I had an email from someone attacking me for posting commercial links on this website. I would like it to be known that I don't make any money if you click on these links to buy the apps. Nor do developers pay me to review their apps. My only motivation is to help other people who live in Thailand l and who use an iPad or iPhone.

Richard you have done us all in the region a service. Actually I am sorry you don’t get a slice as an affliilate, I don’t see anyone losing …… you should suggest it to the developer…. you can always use the money for “good works ” (!!) if you are charitably inclined, although they do say that charity starts at home …..

Thanks for your support BJ. I am only too happy to help out the developers promote their apps. Most of them are small time people working on their own. But, if they want to buy an advertising banner I won’t say no! Always nice to have a few dollars sometimes to help cover running costs.

On this blog I will be sharing with you tips and methods of using an iPhone and iPad in Thailand. I am not pretending to be an expert, but I hope that from my personal experience of using an iPhone for my work and pleasure you might gain some knowledge. As well as reviewing apps that I use, I will also post about accessories and also the latest news from around the world.
