discerning, plush toys, favorite, files, wildlife, fan, play game, checkers, busty plump , software review, | If the young parenting author writes too much for the text panel, the program makes it a bit too easy to add a new, text-only page to hold the overflow--my daughter, Jess, was understandably confused when this happened. Also, although the program supports a wide variety of printers, it won't work with Post-Script printers at all. But these are quibbles. Any program that leads my daughter to all but plead for permission to use a piece of unabashedly educational software is okay with me. Bailey's Book House Rating: **** parenting Edmark, (206) 556-8484; parenting $50 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: 640K 286 PC or higher; hard-disk drive; VGA or EGA; mouse; sound card; printer recommended. Also available for the Macintosh. According to me, Bailey's Book House is a great new teacher-developed children's program from Edmark. According to my four-year-old, it's "way cool." |

My Own Stories is a kid's story construction kit. It provides more than 500 images of people, pets, and stuff, 500-plus scenery combinations, 41 sound effects, 13 songs, 11 page borders, five type styles--a veritable cornucopia of inspiration. The mouse-based program interface lets kids choose graphic elements with a point and a click, then fiddle with their play game color, size, and position to their hearts' content. The text can be written in plain or fancy fonts to suit the author's mood. If the budding play game writer isn't sure how to spell the name of an play game object he or she has placed on the page, there's a convenient spell command that inserts the proper letters into the text. Inviting the folks over to the computer to see a story unfold in full color with sound effects and music is great fun. But for more traditional paper-based output, a child can always choose to print out a copy (teachers have been known to be dazzled by such initiative). Two minor flaws should be noted. |
