By Rodney Alan Greenblat "Take a wild ride into the wacky world of Rodney's Wonder Window. This zany children's CD-ROM is a 'must have' for young children."  "Beautiful but bizarre is the best way to describe these twenty-four unique animations." -- PC Magazine, "The Top 100 CD-ROMs"  Your children may have seen frogs doing it on the Nature Channel, but are they ready for the mating habits of the elusive Tooli Bug? Yes! We can think of no more qualified instructor than Rodney Greenblat on matters of natural science, anatomy (see "X-Ray Shorts"), animal husbandry ("Pet Shop"), woodcraft ("Fire"), maritime history ("Sloop"), and many other topics crucial to a well-rounded education. In fact, regular exposure to Rodney's Wonder Window will guarantee your child's admission to an Ivy League university! So we're exaggerating. Actually, on of Wonder Window's great virtues is the complete absence of any pedagogical intent. Unlike most kids' programs, it's not a Learning Experience masquerading as a Fun Game. CD-ROM/Multimedia actually warns you not to expect education, saying instead, "This is probably the silliest CD you can buy." It's pure fun, and kids play it over and over, responding to Rodney's zany sensibility, wild colors, goofy graphics, ear-bending sound effects, boundless imagination, and complete lack of condescension. Grown-ups go for it, too; we couldn't resist making Mr. Rotato Head do his thing in three dimensions, and checking up on our Digital House Plant (it grows on your hard drive... unless you forget to water it). Take a break, and laugh out loud. Voyager Titles by Rodney Alan Greenblat CD-ROMs: Dazzeloids  Rodney's Wonder Window
