Wolf Hill is an exciting series from Roderick Hunt and Alex Brychta, creators of the Oxford Reading Tree, designed to provide an easy, supportive and sustained read for those pupils who need to gain confidence and motivation in their reading. The Level 2 Stories CD-ROM features the Wolf Hill characters in six talking stories with multiple choice comprehension activities to help children's understanding of the story at the end of each chapter. Each double page of the books is presented on screen. The child moves through each story on screen by clicking on a button using the mouse. Roderick Hunt's text is narrated either as a whole page or as individual sentences and these are highlighted as they are read. A pause button is included so the child can stop at any time and then resume listening. There is a comprehensive User Guide with each CD-ROM.
