Storyline

Reading and fun go hand in hand for children ages 6 to 9 in The Great Reading Adventure starring Howie Mandel, national spokesperson for R.I.F. (Reading is Fundamental). More than 1,000 exercises teach valuable skills ranging from phonics and reading comprehension to word families and context clues. Additionally, The Great Reading Adventure includes a 4,500-word database. Lil' Howie, Stinky and Alphabot show just how much fun reading can be with original songs and excerpts from classic children's literature. Six fun games and five years of curriculum set new standards in the next adventure of the award-winning Great Adventure series.
