 Rating:  - Current Support For This Product Is Not AvailableThink twice before purchasing this software. We have had it about 3 years and the first time we printed a book it worked fine, but now, after my daughter spent a few hours creating the fill-in text for this book, it will not upload properly and there is no support on the Knowledge Adventure website. In fact, I called the support number which says it is open until 9 pm (Eastern Time) and I called at 7:50 pm and the recording not only says they are closed, but they will reopen on "Monday."

I thought this software would enable my daughter (age 9) to write and print her own books. NOT SO. Kids are simply filling in the blanks of provided stories. My daughter played with this for 20 minutes and hasn't touched it since. Absolutely UNINSPIRING! A waste of money. Rating: - Not what I expectedLike some of the other reviewers have said, all you do is fill in some one word answers in a story that's already written. Thought my child was going to get to do alot more creative writing. Browse for similar items by category:
