Dr. Seuss Treasury Kids Books Reviews

Seems like a cool app.. but here are my drawbacks:
1. No sound options. I’d love to be able to turn off (or down) most of the sounds. A few sound effects from turning a page or pressing on an image of the book is fine, but the constant music when looking to select the books is just too much..
2. Too slow. There is so much going on in the pictures and not enough words. It’s a time waster, to me. My kid is already great at getting distracted by the pictures in the books, and all this swiping and moving and extra images is too much that it slows him down more. I’d like the simple book, just 1 page per screen (2 pages in horizontal view).
3. No streaming option. I don’t like having to download everything on my phone, taking up so much space. Especially since each book is so animated and requires more space. I would like to be able to just stream the book when I am at home or on the go. If I’m heading out of town, I would download some for that time if possible lack of connection. All other times, I’d rather it not be downloaded.

Now don’t get me wrong. I do love the content. I like that the books are sorted by grade so I can see where my child is at. I think the animation is cool in the books, just not as practical for my son.

I love DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks! Not only is it great having a large collection of Seuss books easy to travel with, the features are fabulous. It can read to your child at their pace, at an auto pace or let the child read (and get assistance on difficult words). The sound effects are fun and can be turned off. I love that a child can tap the screen to see and hear what each picture is as well! You can even record yourself reading! Definitely well thought out!

I purchased this collection all 50 books in 2017 for my children under one of my family’s Apple ID. We no longer have that iPad. We also had it installed on a second iPad (family share account) and tried to use it (which used to work) it says we need to re purchase the in app books - books that we had already downloaded because we have family sharing. I’ve already paid for all 50 books. Argh! It’s impossible to figure out who to even contact to fix this.
I am not sure when they started doing this lockdown of the books but if I have to purchase each book individually for each of my kids device in my family then I want a full refund of my $50.

I purchased DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks years ago for my kids. They both used to listen books a great deal in lieu of watching TV. As they got older, they have lost interest in Dr. Seuss, as expected. However, I recently downloaded DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks for my great-niece, and my kids were so excited. It was warming to hear them laugh with joy at the recollection of some of their favorite books. Both of my kids love to read, and I can easily attribute their love with early exposure to literacy in such a colorful and fun way.

I bought the complete book set over a year ago. Thought it was the best app ever. My kids loved it. However my oldest started kindergarten last fall and we haven’t used it much the past few months. Just noticed that I don’t own any of my books anymore. As of now Oceanhousemedia will likely require that I repurchase the books. Didn’t give a 1 star because I’m in a email discussion trying to figure this out. But outcome looks unlikely favorable.

Our kids love certain Dr. Seuss books, but won't sit still for others. DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks helps kids move smoothly through the books, and presents a great selection of the Dr. Seuss library.

I should advise that we never used the audio nor auto play, which are both included. One of the best aspects is that DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks does NOT automatically renew after the free trial!

We will not renew DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks , but will definitely buy the hardcover books that they enjoyed on DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks . Would recommend DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks.

It’s great having the books all in one app. DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks is regularly updated which is also a good thing

Disappointed that after purchasing all of the books, advertisements still pop up in DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks to purchase the books individually on DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks Store. Also the books in DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks are like the original books with only a few colors, not like the colorized versions you get when you buy the books individually as apps. Why are the versions different, it’s is the same developer? It’s like you get lower quality product when you get the bundle in DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks.

It says it is eligible for Family Sharing but won’t share to anybody in our family when we try to! Also, if you delete DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks and reinstall it, and you hit the “Restore Purchases” button while logged into it with the same Apple ID you bought it with, it will tell you the subscription doesn’t exist or that you need to use the same Apple ID you originally subscribed with even though both are already correct!! It even still shows up on my list of subscriptions and continues to charge my debit card! And we are only using updated devices, one is the newest iPad and it still doesn’t work! It’s my son’s favorite app, what’s going on??

Hands down one of our favorite apps. Downloaded it and went for the free trial and before the trial ended I was all ready to invest monthly. I can read to my two kiddos or I can set them up to have DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks read while I finish up the nightly mom duties. My 5 year old is loving all the books she gets to read by herself with the word assist feature... Just amazing. Looking forward to another installment of Dr Suess books to enjoy instead of individually purchased books?

I am not a fan of my children spending their time even in waiting rooms on technology. We don't even own an iPad. My three year old comes to me and instead of asking to play a game on my phone, says ,"Mommy, please may I read a book on your phone?". It's great and the stories are books I remember when I was a child! It seems much more wholesome to me than all of the other children's aps I have tried. It's wonderful.

I love the features that come along with the books. Reading appears interactive with some light background noise and sound effects that make reading fun. I have been pleased with it so far until I went to update DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks but now it’s not working anymore. Followed all the instructions and recommendations on how to get DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks functioning again but so far, it keeps crashing on me every time I try to open it. Can I get someone from the company to help me get it up and running again?

I like the idea of DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks, and it works great if you’re on wi-fi every time you use it. I was subscribed for the better part of a year. But I led myself to think that I could download some of the content onto my iPad so that I could use it off-line when I need to entertain the kids away from the internet. WRONG! When I was in that situation today, when I needed it most, it refused to even open DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks unless I was connected to wi-fi. As soon as I can figure out how to cancel my subscription (not straightforward), I am done with this.

My daughter was struggling with reading and spelling. I started read these books with her and her improvement has shown. Today she got her first A. She gets excited about reading now. Thank you for making these classic books interactive and entertaining, but most importantly educational for children. Worth every dollar!!!

We bought subscription when it was over $100, under the impression more than one device could be linked. It’s so confusing and time consuming to link the accounts if it works. By the time you speak with customer service, the work you’ve done to activate one-two devices for some reason disactivates. Our children love Dr Seuss, so DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks is great, only wish we had the capability to put books on more than one device (especially for the price.

I hate apps when I download them and it wants me to pay whatever…💀❤️‍🩹
If this is for 4 year old kids then don’t make DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks pay all of the books 🙄
Cuz this child’s iPads dint have money unless if there a teenager or 10 they can but kids under 5 or 3 or 4 don’t let DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks pay that much!👁👄👁
If there older and this is not a kids game fine but why is this a 4 year old game and it cost so much stuff cuz they might like the books and they don’t have the books and your making the parents pay that much money?!
Some people don’t have money on iPads so at least say sub now if they don’t want to then put a X up top like some games to this not a 10 year old game it’s a 4 year old game so beat it! “Free 7 day trial” more like “buy 7 day trial now” I mean come on!

Don’t let your little sister or brother download this.

My students love DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks. I love it too because of the reader their voices when certain places or parts the sound effects and music. They even have books on here the school does not have. Thank you for having DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks , it was worth every penny to buy the whole books

My special needs child loves the Dr S treasury & these read & play apps. No joke, I think they get listened to at least 10x a day. If not more. But recently the narrator got switched for the Grinch Read & Play (which is kiddo’s favorite) and it was horrible! The new narrator is not nearly as good as the old one & there was no reason to change this. Please please change the narrator to the old one!!!!

I love DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks! More importantly, my daughter loves DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks. She’ll sit still for a whole hour as I read to her and likes to tap on the screen so words are pronounced again. My only wish is that I could download the books with French and Spanish editions and have the same features available.

This app is wonderful I never knew dr. Seuss had so many books. The books are so wonderful I love them!!!!
The only thing I don't like is that u only have a certain time to read them for free then u have to pay to read them. Either way I love DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks it is amazing!!!!!!🙏✌️👍🤘👌🤙🖐👍👍👍👍#1

I have the unlimited subscription and have spent many hours reading these books to my kids but with each recent update it has deleted the entire downloaded collection of books making me have to redownload each book one by one. This is the third time this has happened and now tonight, despite the latest update saying it fixed a download bug it now has caused DrSeussTreasuryKidsBooks to be unable to download any books.

We have the ABC and Green Eggs and Ham apps, which our toddler loves: the animations, and activities, and cool sounds are fantastic. So I bought the Treasury from the same company thinking (erroneously) that all the other books in this Treasury by the same company would work the same way. They do not. They don't work the same way as those stand-alone apps at all. Different interface, not interactive. Very disappointed and will not purchase another app from that firm ever again. What a shame. Save your money.

My kids like the small animations and touching objects. What is really great is that you can record your voice reading the pages, so if you are away for a night (or several), the kids can still hear your voice.
