CTR Review

This 23-page book-on-a-disk provides information on the physical characteristics, behavior, and habits of the Tyrannosaurus Rex through pictures and narration. Designed especially for English Language Learners (ELL) and other emergent readers, each page can be read in either Spanish or English. The illustrations "aren't bad" according to our eight-year-old tester, but there are no interactive features. The program runs in Flash Player and requires no installation on current Macintosh or Windows computers. Other dinosaur books in the series include the Sabertooth Cat, Triceratops and the Stegosaurus.
