 A Childsaving program July 13, 2005
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
My daughters had the common problem - writing was too frustrating, and it was too hard to come up with ideas. While using a computer eased some of the "I messed up and have to start over" problems, adult software was too hard, and most children's software too simple. Enter an early version of this program! Wonderful enticing nuttiness! Suggestions to start writing from! Sound effects with every change in font size! The "toaster" icon for printing!
My daughters started writing, and never stopped. My wife still prefers it to Word. I'd rate it six stars if I could!

They seem to particularly like the ease they can create images and display them, the sounds and animations, and the audio tooltips which tells them how to use the product.

Even though this isn't a new product it feels like it! With this nice program you have a lot of features, a mix from all the Microsoft Office Programs and WordPad. You can build NICE webpages easily, make graphics for them with lots of cool designs and Text effects and you can make an awesome project too! Design your own banner and Holiday Cards for all your friends! This is like an all in one program that everybody should own!

First of all.. I've been reading the customer reviews for this and the total product is NOTHING like the reviews are saying it is! I just thought you'd like to hear a kid's opinion -after all, kids ARE the ones who will be using it!
Ok. The total product is *AMAZING*. First, It gives you plenty of ideas for things to do - such as creating a webpage, story starters (and tips for writing it), business cards, and so much more! It even has special challenges if you feel you're up to it.
You can create wordart and choose vertical or horizontal pages. You can make columns (for newsletters and such) and add colorful clipart, or paste your own. It's a wonderful product and truly deserves four stars!
