    Product Description
    Span a variety of provcative educational topics in an exciting audio visual perspective that helps young children grasp some of the thing that make our world. This fantastic encyclopedia incudes more than 5,000 screens and pop-ups, 40 videos, 90 animations and 2 hours of audio, created specifically for children aged 7-11. A variety of fantastically rendered 3D landscapes transport children to virtual worlds - from the rain forest to the inside of the Earth, from their backyard to deep space - in which every scene and object is linked to brilliantly presented in-depth information. The encyclopedia is extensively cross-referenced and you can leave "sticky notes" on screens as you go along so you can go back to favorite sections. Far more than a collection of information, the Children's Multimedia Encyclopedia is an absorbing interactive experience that will set children on a path of lifelong learning. Explore 20 dazzling, fully rendered 3D environments, each seamlessly linked to layers of in-depth information A fun, easy-to-use interface that's fully customisable for each user

    2 out of 5 stars Disappointing   August 3, 2008
    Love to read (United States)
    Usually DK products are so colorful and attractive but the pages in this encyclopedia are just plain white with tiny words in a little box in the middle of the page. If you want to see an image you have to click and open a separate window. There aren't any hyperlinks so you don't get that expansive feeling of finding more and more things to look up. Kids won't look at this for more than a minute.
