Nice (5 stars)
This game is so creative im never going to delete this app but could you give us a free background with a cool free character

Excellent teaching and presentation tool (5 stars)
I'm a licensed First grade teacher. My students really enjoy using Toontastic to present the stories that they write. I've seen students who I thought had weak writing skill produce richly layered narratives that were a pleasant surprise, to say the least.
After seeing my kids work with it, I decided to purchase the full access pack. I wasn't disappointed. Each time the app updates, I my students get new and exciting content.

Amazing app! Easy to use and actually helps teach about the parts of a story. My kids make lots of animated stories.

I had a problem with the app freezing and sent an email for help. I received a response within an hour. Incredible customer service and attention.

Great purchase!
