2.0 out of 5 stars Not up to standard, July 21, 2004

By	J. Chow (Ontario) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been a faithful Mia fan for 5 years and have bought all the other games for my two kids. This game is a big disappointment. The language game is virtually unplayable in French. I am fluent in French and went to a French language university for nine years. I could barely understand what the characters were saying. If this program is intended to teach kids a second language, it would be more likely to turn them off the language instead. This game definitely does not cater to anyone who does not already have an understanding of French.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to Play, Easy to Load, Easy to Love!, August 12, 2005

By	Anita Amesse "Anita" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This game is great! After buying Mia Reading I thought it was a great idea to get my 2 girls to start learning Spanish since we live in a global village. They game was easy to load, easy to navigate and the level was perfect for beginners. The high quality 3D animation will blow you away. Even my husband who learned 3D animation at the Vancouver Film School was blown away. The best part is, that they love playing it as they think it is a game. They forget they're learning numbers and vocab and how to put together simple sentences. Well recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended, August 6, 2004

By	Alison - See all my reviews

My girl has always loved Mia and she loves knowing words in other languages, so Mia's Language adventure in a real winner in our home.

I sat with her through parts of the game and was amazed at the depth of the educative activities. The story was fun and I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in second languages. Bravo!
