Description

The immensely popular Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy is now available as an interactive KIWA Book with wonderful narration by David Tennant (Good Omens, Doctor Who). It has also had video narration in 3 sign languages; NZSL, AUSLAN & ASL

Run your fingers over the text to hear the story and touch any word to hear and see it spoken and spelt. You can even colour in pages of the story and record your own voice. Hear the barking dogs and the ferocious yowl of Scarface Claw, all part of the interactive experience, giving children and parents’ hours of fun. This is not only a marvellous story, but a superb aid for early learning and literacy development.

It was thirty years ago that a small black dog stepped out of the imagination of author and illustrator Lynley Dodd and onto the pages of a picture book. This book, Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy, is now famous the world over and the 20 titles in the Hairy Maclary and friends series have now sold more than six million copies worldwide.

Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy combines simple narrative storytelling with virtuoso use of rhythm and rhyme, and Dodd’s gentle but energetic watercolour illustrations depict characters that are as well loved as they are mischievous.

Do not purchase

This is the second time I have had to purchase the app as it stopped working after the upgrade. Now the app is rubbish. I should have read the reviews first. No longer easy to use, read along with children, no longer easy to colour. Definitely NOT designed for iPad use any more. How can I obtain a refund??

No longer works after update

We used to love this but after the recent update it no longer works. Don't purchase it! Buy the books instead because they last!

Nice app with extra features

This is a nice app and both my kids love it. The story mode is great and you can choose for it to be read by David Tennant with the words on screen highlighting as you go, or the kids can read it themselves. If you touch the words they are read out too which is nice.

There is also basic colouring feature so the kids can colour in the pictures from the book. My kids love this and it keeps them occupied for hours!
