What parents need to know
Parents need to know that Go Away, Big Green Monster! for iPad is an interactive adaptation of Ed Emberley's classic children's book of the same name. In the book, the scary features of a monster are layered on one by one (eyes, nose, mouth, hair, etc.) and then, to extinguish the monster's fearsomeness, those same features are all taken away one by one. The app goes a bit further by showing the complete monster again at the end and revealing him to be more silly than frightening.
Is it any good?
GO AWAY, BIG GREEN MONSTER! FOR IPAD is a pretty straightforward adaptation of the classic picture book. With this electronic version, you lose some of the magic that lay in the way the cutouts in the paper revealed more and more of the monster with each turn of a page. But what you do get here is a cute added ending scene and the ability to hear the story narrated by either a young boy or author Ed Emberley himself.
