Lazy Larry Lizard is a cute, highly rated childrens bedtime story app from Wasabi Productions.

This animated children’s book was created especially for touch screen technology. Early readers are invited to play an active role in the story and are rewarded with rich interactivity - when they ‘poke’ Lazy Larry on the screen, he wakes up and comes to life. But as surprising and delightful as this is for the reader, it’s not so much fun for poor Larry and the reader learns of a better way to make him happy at the end (a special social outtake for kids). This book makes for the perfect bedtime story. Larry’s facial expressions, noises and curling up to rest are sure to delight and entertain the whole family!

"An absolutely adorable story book app that has a calming effect, despite the entertaining antics displayed by Larry the most likeable lizard you’ll ever meet. It may be perfect for bedtime, but we here at TWA think this is a book a parent or caregiver of a toddler or a preschool teacher could be pulling off the shelfall day long! The children we worked with, of both genders, found Lazy Larry to be so loveable and endearing that we wonder how this series of Larry the Lizard eluded us for so long.
