5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Creative Writing Tool for Kids, June 6, 2000

This review is from: Storybook Weaver Deluxe (CD-ROM)

I bought this program thinking it would be hokey, at best. But I was pleasantly surprised. My son was able to read stories or create new ones, using story starters or a 'blank sheet of paper.' There are a number of backgrounds, props, and musical themes. You can even print out what you've created. He still has fun with this two years later. I was sorry to see that it is out of stock, because I think this program is wonderful for aspiring young writers.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Great Game, May 21, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Storybook Weaver Deluxe (CD-ROM)

I went over to my friends house one day and decided to play this game. We added sound, pictures, and wrote a great story. We had such a fun time on her computer. I wanted to buy this game for myself but it was out of stock. I'm so upset because I wanted to record my voice on it to read the story. It's a really great game and lot's of kids would love to play it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great counseling and therapy tool, June 9, 2001

This review is from: Storybook Weaver Deluxe (CD-ROM)

As a school counselor, a student introduced me to this program. If you work with children who don't trust, you know that they do not like traditional talk therapies. I have found Storybook Weaver to be helpful both in assessing students and as a way to introduce alternative ways to cope and see the world. It is great corrective play therapy. Most students enjoy the process and usually finish their pictures with a satisfied "There! I'm done!"
