The books are animated, colorful and include music, sound effects and voices. As children follow along, the words are highlighted as they are read aloud providing hours of educational fun. In addition to the books, children will find cartoons, music, puzzles, games, and jokes. The classroom section provides some lesson plans for teachers and other support materials. A Writing Contest is in progress where students can send in their stories and have them published on the site. Monthly winners are illustrated and animated.
