It arrived on time, and as described. Thank you for a good experience.
Good for Windows 98 computers

Arthur's Birthday is a good computer story book. Some animation on each page. I use the read-to-me option for my 4 year old grandson.
I could not get it to run on my old Win XP computer or on my newer Win 7 computer, so pulled out my old Toshiba Win 98 laptop and run it from there. This also lets me stay on my computer.
If you still use Windows 98, then this is good. You could try the Win 98 compatibility mode on your XP computer and see if it works on your's. It didn't on mine. If you use Win 7, don't bother.

A few significant glitches

My child loves Arthur Living Books, this one is great, but the software has a few glitches. Some of the pages wouldn't turn,(click them and nothing happens)and sometimes trying to click the back arrow wouldn't my child got very upset with it...
My daughter loves it.

Nice software. The reading part is really helpful, the little tricks in the pages are really fun.
The reaonsing game, the gift mystery, is kind of hard for my 4.5-yr old. My daughter enjoys looking for the clues but it is hard to get the problem solved. Will look into it myself.
Pin the tail is kind of too easy. My daughter would only spend a little time on it.
Please note: this stuff does not run well with Vista system, dies all the time. But it runs very smoothly on my old laptop with XP professional.

This Arthur CD is fun to play with on your computer. The games are educational and keep your interest. I received this CD in the mail in a timely manner and in good condition. Thank you.
