Reader Rabbit's Interactive Reading Journey is a series of four Edutainment games from The Learning Company. The first game was developed in October 1994 and the last three were developed the following year. The products make use of interactive storybooks based on Fairy Tales to help early readers broaden their reading, vocabulary, writing and word recognition skills. Each number in the title corresponds to the reading level of the reader they are aimed at.

Gameplay

In each game, the player has two storybooks to choose from. There are three versions of each story, the first told by Sam the narrator called the "Classic" version and the latter two as different perspectives of characters from the story. The story can be read entirely by the narrator or it can be read by the user with guidelines. The games also include three activities to further enhance learning to read.[2]
