A CHRISTMAS CAROL (QUEUE)
Macintosh CDROM

An unabridged, fully narrated multimedia version of Dickens' A Christmas Carol, this program is designed to encourage reading. Scores of beautiful color illustrations supplement Charles Dickens' full original text with unabridged narration! For slower or younger readers, the illustrations, captions, and separate, dramatized audio track tell the entire story in simple text. Designed to improve comprehension, this CD contains highlighted words and "pop-up" definitions. Additional materials include a multimedia presentation on Dickens; challenging worksheets on vocabulary, reading comprehension, and historical background; and the entire text of both A Christmas Carol and A Tale of Two Cities, ready for printout or transfer to word-processing files. A creative writing program enables students to create original stories using illustrations from the program.
