JumpStart 1st Grade Reading, later released as JumpStart Reading for First Graders, is a game released in 1997 that focuses on teaching a first grade language arts curriculum. Frankie's circus pals have been trapped in a magical jigsaw puzzle by mischievous Mel the Magician. The circus can't go on...or can it? Play exciting carnival games that build critical reading skills, then exchange your carnival tickets for pieces of the jigsaw puzzle. Reassemble the puzzle and save your circus friends before Mel casts a spell on you! The 1997 releases of the game support both Windows and Macintosh computers, with later releases dropping Mac support. Both Focus Multimedia Ltd (United Kingdom) and SelectSoft Publishing (North America) handled the publishing for the re-release a decade later for the year 2007.
