By 
In celebration of Dr. Seuss’ birthday and the National Education Association’s (NEA) Read Across America, Oceanhouse Media announced a sale on the entire line of Dr. Seuss apps today. App prices for the iPad and iPhone have been reduced by 25% – 75% in the App Store for one week.
“The NEA and Oceanhouse Media are two wonderful partners to help us commemorate Dr. Seuss’s birthday,” said Susan Brandt, President of Dr. Seuss Enterprises. “Both focus on promoting reading and literacy in children. Nothing would have made Dr. Seuss happier.”
Dr. Seuss’ whimsical characters have come to life on the pages of his books and have entertained children for decades. His clever compilation of rhyming words resulted in some of the most popular and well-known books of all time. Lucky for iPad owning parents, many of Dr. Seuss’ great titles are available for children to read, explore and enjoy in a whole new way.
We’ve reviewed several Dr. Seuss titles from Oceanhouse Media in over the past year and recommend them all. These universal apps take full advantage of the large iPad screen providing a wonderful reading experience for kids of all ages. Enjoy the playful text and amusing artwork every time you sit down to read.

- Three reading options – Read to Me, Read it Myself and Auto Play
