Luna Kettlebottom…*****
by Gerard Bocaccio
A terrifically fun app… my daughters have been having a blast navigating the pages and uncovering all the little secrets inside Luna’s world. Beautiful artwork and animation. Well done…

When the kids of The Magic Cauldron Society gather together, magical, silly and fascinating things happen! In Book #1, Luna Kettlebottom and her friends, Vlad, Howl, and Ghoulia, are transported into the world of Jack and the Beanstalk for a monsterful re-telling of this classic tale.
Much more than just a book, you and your young readers become part of the story and actively participate on every page.

When your kids are not reading Luna Kettlebottom this summer, they should be outside PLAYING!
Play is critical to the healthy growth and development of children because it is simultaneously a source of relaxation and stimulation for the brain.
Here are some good tips for keeping summer play safe: http://www.parenting.com/gallery/summer-safety-tips
Fun summer reading “contest” from Scholastic where all your kids have to do is read and then log their minutes reading. We like how they encourage kids to be part of a larger effort to set a world record.
We’ll have plenty of Luna Kettlebottom this summer to help keep your kids going!
Luna #2–Little Red Riding Luna– beta is done and we are very happy with it. There are things to fix and adjust but overall it looks really good.
Based on that, we will launch Luna #1 world-wide sometime within the next two weeks. Just need to get a few ducks in a row. **Exciting**
