I Saw A Strange Little Man (CD-ROM)
By Essex Interactive Media

Review & Description

Follow an unseen narrator as he watches a funny little man paint a doorway in mid-air with a magic paint brush which reveals a beautiful, spectacularly colorful 3D landscape. Another odd fellow emerges from the land on the other side of the doorway and erases the doorway the strange little man had just passed through, but before the door disappears, the narrator gains possession of the magic paint brush and heads out to paint his own doorway. The story then diverges into six alternative plots. After reading the story book section, children enter the landscape themselves, taking an extensive first person virtual reality exploration through 220 individual 3D scenes. Then, by finding and correctly answering reading comprehension questions, they discover the secret behind the mysterious paint brush. Read more
