Animated StoryBook: 101 Dalmatians

101 Dalmatians: Animated Storybook is a Disney Interactive storybook offering young readers a chance to improve their reading comprehension, vocabulary, and problem solving skills. Players can participate in four activities, six sing-alongs, and learn how to use a dictionary. During the game, players will join Pongo, Perdita and their pups while matching wits with the evil Cruella De Vil.

Plot
The game itself it based more on aspects of the live-action movie, with Roger being a video game designer and Anita working for Cruella, whilst at the same time keeps the designs of the animated counterparts. The game's storyline continues like the live-action movie, with Kipper rescuing the pups and the animals tackling Cruella in the barn. However, the game keeps the animated climax, with the Dalmatians covering themselves in soot and escaping back to London in a moving van.

Trivia

 * The game has three narrators. Pongo and Perdita, being the two, narrate the first four pages (Perdita also narrates the sixth), and Lucky takes over for the rest of the Sstory after the Twilight Bark page.
 * If you put the video tape into the VCR, three clips of "One Hundred and One Dalmatians" will be available to see. The original voices, however, have been dubbed over with the game's ones.
 * The video game is a combination of the aspects of the two films: the live-action film and the animated film. Roger being a video game designer comes from the live-action film, while the climax (the puppies escaping from Cruella in a van to London) comes from the 1961 animation.
 * Even though "Roger Dearly" was the video game designer, This game features "Roger Radcliffe" as the one who designs video games. However, the factor of getting a better villain stays from the movie.
 * On the First Page, if you click Roger enough times, he will find a boomerang in his bed and throw it, causing it to fly around the room and then into the window of the "House Of DeVil" across the road. When Cruella arrives (if she isn't already there), she screams that Roger is going to pay for the window. If the boomerang is thrown in the first page, it is shown still embedded in the window in the second page.
