Richard Scarry, the long-standing king of reading books for small children, is brought up to date in a partnership with the impressive LeapPad learning system, which combines interactive fun with serious educational substance. Designed for use with the interactive LeapPad as part of the LeapPad learning system, this book concentrates on the development of vocabulary: simply slot the special cartridge that is provided with the book into the LeapPad, press the "magic pen" on the green "go" button on the first page of the book and watch as your little readers have fun as they learn.

The LeapPad learning system is an ideal way to introduce even the most reluctant readers to the pleasure of books, and is a great way to share the pleasure of reading with parent and child. Children will love the interactive elements of the books--just run the pen over a picture and it speaks to you, touch an image at the bottom of the page and it plays a game; you can have the words repeated as often as is needed--they will quickly discover that learning doesn't have to be a chore. This book is for ages 5 to 7, and is designed for use with the LeapPad. --Susan Harrison.
