Two volumes of short and entertaining stories are presented, featuring colourful, lively animated images. Each story features large print, and the user has the option of selecting an accompanying voice that reads along with the text, highlighting each word in turn. The user is presented with a contents page which displays a picture representing each story. The user then clicks on a picture and the title of the story will appear on the bottom of the screen. InteractiveIndividual words can be clicked on to check pronunciation, and a log of these words may be kept, for the teacher's, parent's or child's future reference. There are 12 stories to choose from, six in each volume. On each page there are three main icons in the form of directional arrows, an ear that produces the voice and an eye that animates the image on screen. These interactive buttons allow the user to read at his/her own pace, explore and discover words and study the animated pictures in detail. You can easily adjust the program's volume and turn audio and sound effects on or off as required. ConclusionThe program's engaging stories, along with the colourful interactive illustrations, would appeal to both the most fluent reader and those who have difficulties with reading. The package has the potential to provide a simple, yet effective classroom resource. Yvette WindsorYear 3 TeacherSandon Primary SchoolArmidale NSW
