REVIEW
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 and very entertaining in their own right.
