Reader Rabbit was designed to help kids with word and letter recognition. There are four different modules to the program: Sorter, Labeler, Word Train and Matchup. These games were all available on the 8-bit Apple II version, but the IIGS version also included speech for every word presented.
Although a IIGS specific program, the graphics utilise the double hi-res mode, which an Apple IIe or IIc was capable of, but they are well drawn, colourful and easily recognisable by kids.
The program cannot be run from System 6 nor can it be installed to a hard drive. In fact, emulation struggles to get the program running at all as well!
