Rating: - Arthur RR is good buy for <$4 including shipping
Good product but only have one game to play. So far my 5 yr old has used about 4hrs of play and i believe that he will play maybe 4 more hours before getting tired of repititious content. It is none the less a good program and it makes kids want to read more. Overall I am satisfied with the purchase.

I LOVE this interactive CD. My 8 year old son has autism. The wonderful graphics and animation has captured his interest in wanting to read, whereas, it is difficult.
Also, he is able to relate to what he does in school to the CD. They all sit in circle and Arthur and his friends sit in circle, too.
These are simple sight words that they use and we are very pleased with this product. This makes learning FUN!
And, when the sentence is read, it is hi-lighted so you know what is being ... Read More
Rating: - Arthur and DW are a hit at my house
My seven year old boy enjoys this CD. It has 2 basic tracks, one, you can "play within the story," clicking on parts of the story and see short cause/effect/noises unfold. The "play within the story" is entertaining and a nice break from reading or getting frustrated. The other part to this CD is an actual read along. The read along is nice because as each word is read by a computer voice, it is highlighted. The reading level is simple and read at a slower pace for learning kids. I'm very happy ... Read More

My 7-year old autistic daughter loves this game and will play with it for hours.
She can already read, better than the level this game is targetted for, but what she loves is all the fun animations from all the clickable hotspots.
Rating: - Great game, my daughter is already sassy anyway
Great story with lots of interactive stuff to click on to keep youngsters interested.
The reading race game is excellent, however the authors did not include nearly enough words in the game to keep it interesting long term. A real shame, as the game itself is motivating and educational and would have real value in teaching spelling and word recognition skills if only the dictionary was larger.
The previews of other games are a great addition - good advertising for the publishers ... Read More
