    Smarty Britches: Nouns This is an enchanting book app with wonderful illustrations. It does a great job of explaining specific nouns (people, place and things). Speech tip: Read the story with your kids or use the option to "read to me" and then have them think of nouns that begin with their targeted speech sound(s).
