What's the Story?
In LEAPFROG LETTER FACTORY ADVENTURES: THE LETTER MACHINE RESCUE TEAM, the team receives an assignment from The Chief - but oh no, the Letter Machine isn't working! So Professor Quigley enlists help from his friends Leap, Matilda, Cousin Toad, Tad and Lily to save the day. While fixing the machine, the team learns about Quigley's unique problem solving strategy: design, build, test, and improve. This leads them to exploring even more educational topics such as making adjectives stronger, sounds letters make, comparing words, and parts of a word.
