Disney Princess Stories is part of LeapFrog's range of interactive books. designed to be used with their
LeapPad Learning System. The pack contains a spiral-bound book and a cartridge. Simply slot both the book and the cartridge into the appropriate areas on the LeapPad and you're ready to start.
This particular title is recommended for children at the "LeapStart" pre-reading stage of the LeapPad library, which is children up to five years old.
Little girls will love to join the tales, and get swept away by the magic of the Disney Princesses. They can help a friend with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, dress up and dance the night away with enchanting Cinderella, or the more adventurous will love to take the plunge and join the dramatic undersea adventure with Ariel. Music and song will encourage pre-schoolers through the book as the magic of Disney really comes to life.
Disney Princess fans will be comfortable with the bold, bright images that perfectly replicate the characters they know so well from film and stories. The book is superbly produced. The LeapPad comes with a special touch-sensitive pen--follow the story by using it to touch the words on the page. Parents will love the fact that as children read on, using the "magic pen", they will build basic skills: story comprehension, vocabulary, character dialogue, character comprehension, and recognise initial sounds and letters.
Disney Princesses will entertain pre-school children, (particularly little girls) and is designed, with the LeapPad, go build reading confidence. --Susan Naylor
