In this twist on a classic tale, Tad, Lily, Casey and Dot act out "The Three Little Pigs". It all takes place in the Storybook Factory--where pictures, words, and imagination bring stories to life! For children ages 3-6.

We love LeapFrog!
We love the LeapFrog movies. They are both educational and entertaining. Thanks to LeapFrog, my daughter has learned phonics and basic reading skills at 2yo!

It is okay
We have the Letter Factory which we love. I have also seen Word Factory which was also very good. This one isn't quite at the same level. This one basically teaches them what commas, periods, question marks, and exclamation marks mean. Also some of the characters voices are different.

Title "Learn to Read" may be misleading --- depending on age group
This is a decent video but not essential. Now, the Letter Factory is definitely a must-have. My son is almost 4 yrs old and has been moved to the "Early Reading Program" at his preschool even though his age group is typically in Phonics first, then upon an assessment of readiness, they are moved to reading. He knew all his letters by 18 months old and knew the sounds of each letter by 3. If you are looking to help your child learn letters, you should definitely get the Letter Factory. It's amazing and fun to watch. My son wanted to watch that more than the Baby Einsteins (other than Baby Macdonald).
If you are wanting your child to read by 3 or 4, then this video is not going to help in my opinion. It may possibly help for an older age group -- If anything, it helps get children almost ready to read in the right mind-set and tries to make it fun. My son watched it a few times but wasn't hooked on it. One thing that I didn't like is that the video only uses capital letters and that is not helpful when any book you pick up is going to have both upper and lower case letters. If the child only sees words with all capital letters, than this is not going to help with reading a real beginner book like "cat in the hat". The lower case letters are going to be foreign.
From my internet research, children that can read at age 3 are usually the ones that learned by word-recognition/memory (i.e. not actually reading). Like my son recognizes the word "STOP" because its on all the stop signs, it's background is always red, and in the same shape.
