When Hervé Tullet published the picture book Press Here in 2011, a phenomenon was born. Kids and kids at heart followed the instructions in the book and embarked upon a journey where colorful dots danced, swirled, and seemed to move around the page—all powered by their own imaginations.
Now this beloved book has inspired a brand-new entertainment app that is sure to dazzle kids of all ages. Picking up where the book left off, this app introduces children to a magical world of brightly winking, blinking, multiplying, and colliding dots that create visually rich, intuitive play. Screen-poking tots and fun-loving adults alike will giggle with delight as the dots multiply, change direction, and grow in size.
With 15 original games and activities offering unlimited hours of fun, the Press Here app is a must-have for admirers of the book and a great introduction to Hervé Tullet for new fans. Plus, it’s available on the iPad and iPhone.
