Kid Works 2 is a reading tutorial program designed to teach children to write and illustrate their own story for individuals with a developmental or physical disability.

Story Player lets students listen to the story as the computer reads it out loud. They can use Icon Maker to edit their own picture-word symbols. A built in speech dictionary lets users edit and add words. This program is TouchWindow (see separate entry) accessible for students with a physical disability.
