Product Description:
Reader Rabbit Preschool Learning is the fun way to prepare children for the world of learning that waitsfor them at school!

Content:
As other reviewers have stated, it's an excellent interactive learning experience for your child. I give it 4 or 5 stars on that alone. But I was dismayed to find that the setup process stuck an AOL promotion on my desktop (my other Reader Rabbit programs also did it). And of course, the unwelcome desktop icon was just a shortcut; I had to search in the Programs folder for the AOL executable file in order to delete it. A major annoyance!
This sort of thing is not terribly unusual with free applications that you download from the Internet, but when I pay money for a program, I don't expect it to come with adware junk.
Another problem is that once you've started one of the programs running, there's no way to back out of it or shut it down before it quits. There's no right-click menu with a Cancel button or anything like that. Very inconvenient if you're simply giving a program a quick test. I had to use the Windows CTRL-ALT-DEL trick to shut it down in midstream.
Bottom line: great for the kid, a pain in the behind for dad.
Summary: Excellent for the kids, not so good for your computer.

Content: Have been very satisfied with all RR products. I keep buying, they keep playing. Excellent way to get boys to focus and learn! Highly recommended, makes a great gift too.
Summary: Excellent, kids LOVE it!

Content: I bought this for my son who is 4. He loves it and plays it often. Now he is five and he still plays it and was able to complete the game in one afternoon. I guess it is time to buy RR Kindergarten for him.
Summary: Reader Rabbit doesn't disappoint.
