How To Train Your Dragon is the storybook app version of the upcoming DreamWorks movie of the same name. The app features screenshots from the movie as illustrations and they’re beautifully done. From what I saw in the app the movie’s animation is going to be great. To be honest I’ve not been that interested in this movie but after trying out the app I’m intrigued. It seems like the movie will have a good message and the dragons look fierce. So do the Vikings. The narration for the app is well done and the text will highlight as the story is read. You can’t record yourself reading this story but you can turn off the auto page turn, the narration and the text highlighting. This is not a short story and I’ll warn you, after you’ve finished it you’re going to know how the movie ends.
Sometimes apps that are tied into movies can be, well, lame. There is a dragon game available in the App Store but I haven’t tried it out. I was very glad to see an alternative to a game and iStorytime has done a great job creating a storybook app from How To Train Your Dragon.
