From iTunes:
REVIEWS: 4 of 5 stars, “…preserves the loving message of the original board book and brings some creative extras to the digital update… The most unusual feature is hearing the words of the book in a song… it's among the most original additions to book apps I've seen and likely to be a big hit with toddlers…Just enough interactivity to keep a toddler's attention without disrupting the bedtime routine...The clear, heartfelt narration makes the most of the short verses. There's a nice rhythm to it…My favorite part is the prompt at the end to record your own verse…an option to personalize the last page with a child's name… …The song is also available as a separate iTunes download…The app, like the board book, makes a special gift for a new mother.” ---Smart Apps for Kids (smartappsforkids.com)
DESCRIPTION:The widely popular children's book I Love You All The Time, released in 1999 by Cookie Bear Press, Inc. with over 300,000 copies in print, is now bursting with delightful animation easily activated by toddler fingers, professional voice talent, an original song (also on iTunes), and a chance for your child to see their name in lights, all wrapped up with iPad magic.

I think you did an awesome job explaining it. Sure beats having to research it on my own. Thanks
