Can't go wrong when it's this inexpensive... best price, period!
Service quick, professional, no complaints.

If you are thinking of buying this product be sure to check to see if your computer is compatible. We have a Mac OS X and the Tortoise and the Hare is too old a program for it. As far as we can tell it runs only on version 7. Don't be mislead by the fact that is says for Mac versions 7 or higher on the case, it is not true and I suspect it will be a similar situation for computers running Windows.

My 7-year old autistic daughter loves this game.

We stumbled onto it originally in a "preview", included in some Arthur CD-ROM's, and I went and bought a used copy of the real thing.

She will play for hours, clicking on things and making them interact all over the place. She laughs hysterically sometimes, making the hare stumble through mud etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars I used to play this ALL the TIME!!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2009
I loved this so much when I was little! I would play it all the time.
In this story The Tortiose is slow in speed but not in kindess. He takes things one at a time and doesn't waste it either.
The Hare on the other hand is busy and always on the move and is kind of a braggart (And I say it in a loving way) but loveable anyway.

One day the Tortoise is listening to the birds sing and the Hare thinks that the Tortoise leds a boring life. And then that afternoon they meet again.
And the Hare starts teasing him again. And by now the Tortiose is getting tired of being made fun of and tells the Hare that he can move pretty fast sometimes and so the Hare challenges him to a race.
And when the race comes Who do you think wins the race? Buy this Living Book to find out!

Oh and there are lots of funny gags like on page 5 if you click on one of the buildings a mouse appears and calls to his friend who's a hippo and asks him does he want to play catch. And the hippo says "Sure. Catch me" and the hippo lands on the mouse and the mouse picks him up and carries him away (That's a strong mouse). That was such a HOOT! Kids laugh out loud at these gags I'm sure of it!
I NEVER get tired of these gags their SO funny! Also don't forget to find the dragonfly that's hidden on every page!

When my daughter was 2 years old, she loved the listening option where the book is read to her on the computer, and she didn't have to do anything to "turn" the pages. Now that she's 3 years old, she loves the interactive option where she can click on the pages and see the animations move and make sounds.
