Reviews: What People Think About English Idioms Illustrated

Rating: 3/5
I really like it but unfortunately to unlock all idioms you need to make a payment and who knows after an update of the app since there's no restore payment option. It would have been better if the full-version was released separately so that it would ease my mind in purchasing that.

I bought this app about three years ago (much longer than that now) and I still review the different idioms about once or twice a month (I took a break when I switched to a Samsung for a bit). The illustrations and explanations make the idioms understandable and easy to learn.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR/ARTIST

Professor Potts is a dashing investigator who loves nothing more than jet-setting around the world exploring scientific mysteries. His butler has a PhD in nuclear science and his dog will only eat bones from the Jurassic period.

Aidan Potts -his alter ego- has a slightly more tedious biography. Aidan was born in London 1963 and 6 months later he moved to Nigeria, followed by Bogota, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, Tripoli, Libya and the Turks and Caicos. He studied History of Art at University College London, then began working as an illustrator for the British press. Among his books are “Uneversaurus” and “The Smash Smash Truck”.
