Pros and cons of Titanic Dog To The Rescue app for iPhone and iPad

Titanic Dog To The Rescue app good for

Good graphics. It is unusual for a childrens book to have an actual historic twist.
Its a very kind, heart touching story, thank you very much for publishing it.

Some bad moments

Half way through the story, it demands money to go on. I might have purchased this if told it would cost 99 cents up front, but Im disappointed and now so is my son. Nice teachable moment about lying and greed.
I dont like how you stop the book right when it hits the iceberg. This book is really bad because the facts are all wrong. The Titanic struck the iceberg on April 14, 1912, but in the book it says the 13th. Also, Rigels masters name was spelled wrong. Its supposed to say Murdoch but in the book it says Murdock. Do you guys see what I mean.
So, you make a story, where half of the facts are WRONG. And halfway through the "story", you have to pay a dollar?
Why, why dose it stop is the middle of the story I got it I get all worried when the dog heard a noise then it stops what a stinking rip off
Not to mention the wrong facts....Our version stops too...but we arent even offered a chance to purchase the next chapter...you can imagine how upset my 5year old is not to be able to finish the story!
This book is so bad. A lot of the facts are wrong. Then, not even halfway through the book, it says that you have to pay 1$ just to keep reading the book. SUCH A RIP-OFF!
