I downloaded this book for my 6 year old who has always struggled with reading and fights against it, even though he loves being read to. This was the first time ever he got stuck in a book and I had to drag the ipad off him to make him go to bed. A very simple story and illustrations with lots of intriguing twists and turns that gripped my son. Totally recommend getting this for other reluctant readers. Huge thanks to the makers of this.

Spy Sam Reading Book 1 has been completely rebuilt in Godot, the open source game engine, which has allowed the pages to be brought to life with little animations.
