This interactive (in English, French, or Spanish) CD-ROM storybook also provides for music, recording voices, and creative writing. There are four different modes: listening, reading and singing the story, or writing a story based on some of the illustrations.

In Listen-Along mode, pages and pictures change automatically as story unfolds, read by an adult voice. Students can pause or resume story by pointing and clicking at pause and play buttons on the screen. In Read-Along mode, students can record themselves reading, can hear the story being read by a boy or girl, can be transported to a full-screen animation by clicking on a Page Map button. A Word Balloon button lets students explore the picture an learn new words. When moving the cursor about the screen, it may change from a balloon to a hand to a question mark to a magnifying glass to an arrow, each designating some discovery/learning feature.
