Book Description

May 1998
This guide is intended to present the best of the Web for parent and child to enjoy together. Of the thousands of websites on the Internet directed at children, we selected the 100 or so sites that we believe are the most interesting and fun, and most suitable to parent and child exploring together.

Here, your child will find many familiar characters-Dr. Seuss, Winnie-the-Pooh, Disney-but in a cyberspace environment that allows for a greater degree of interaction.

Getting Your Child Started on the Internet will help prepare children for feeling comfortable with and appreciating the Internet, which will play an important role in their lives. Each site listed includes a summary of what the site contains (including whether it is non-commercial or includes product tie-ins) and a reproduction of the site's homepage, so the child can compare the image on the page to the image on the screen.
