About this title

Review

With tons of spelling and vocabulary words and silly pictures to click on, Arthur's Teacher Trouble introduces kids to the Spanish language with the help of their favorite aardvark. This interactive storybook form introduces us to Mr. Ratburn, Arthur's new teacher, as he advances to the finals of a spelling bee, trying to win an elusive trophy.

The 24-page story can be read aloud with no computer skills needed beyond clicking on the arrow at the bottom of the page and at the start of the story. (Parents or older children can choose whether the story will be read in Spanish or English.) For children with slightly more advanced mouse skills, every scene has multiple points that can be clicked on for hilarious things to happen--you never know what you might find lurking in the trash can! With the graphics so true to the original books' satisfying amount of vocabulary-related activities, this award-winning storybook is bound to be a big hit with any Arthur fan. --Jill Lightner
