Kar2ouche - any good?

[Swiddle]

Any one tried Kar2ouche? I've been recommended it for my AS 8 year old to create social stories and explore feelings etc, but before I fork out the big bucks, has any one got any views?

I have used Kar2ouche to write social stories and have found you can produce stories that really engage children. I also know of several SEN staff in schools that use Kar2ouche regularly to write social stories and also to work on emotions. I know that some schools have found Kar2ouche very useful as a medium of communication.
