Written by CBeebies star Joseph Elliott (Swashbuckle, Justins House, CBeebies Christmas Carol, Peter Pan).

Moftail and the Colour Thief tells the tale of a hapless gecko called Moftail who wakes up one morning to discover that all of the colours in the world have disappeared. With the help of a mysterious flying creature called Fuz, Moftail sets out to find the missing colours.

An epic 65-page adventure, neatly divided into seven exciting chapters, the story finds Moftail climbing volcanoes, flying with birds and being swallowed by a whale! All written in charming rhyming couplets that your little one will love listening to.

Moftail and the Colour Thief can be enjoyed in two different modes: Full Story Mode is for adults and older children to read; turn the iPad 180° and the story will change into Short Story Mode where younger or less confident children can try reading the story themselves. This unique feature is designed to encourage adults to read with children and to promote self-confidence and independence in young readers.

Other features include:

- High-Contrast Mode
- Dyslexia-Friendly Filters
- Audible Phonetic Support to assist new readers
