I must recommend against Talking Notebook (I forget the exact name)
by FirstByte.  It's too slow to be usable and it's buggy.  It would
be a cute program if it worked, although it is clearly not an Amiga
program but a port, probably from an Apple-II.  But it's so slow that
my 5 year old was convinced she'd broken the computer when she tried
it; she refuses to use it now, even though she's fascinated by words
and letters.
