Notes & Reviews:

'Da-da-da-DAAAAH, Da-da-da-DAAAAH': listen to track 7 and see if you recognize that music! It's one of the most famous pieces of classical music ever written. There are some animals here, too - an elephant and a swan. And right at the end, guess which boy wizard joins the party... Come and join it too!

Famigo
It's kind of set up like an interactive storybook, which is nicely familiar, with cool additions like little quizzes and snippets of songs.
