In http://forum.brillkids.com/little-reader/little-reader-in-linux/
a user said she was unable to use Wine to run Little Reader.
So I gave it a shot.
To install, you have to first do
  sh winetricks dotnet20
to work around the fact that .net doesn't quite install yet.

The app starts, but hangs at the splash screen.  You can see why
by reading ~/"BrillKids/Little Reader/Data/error.log"
Please install Microsoft Data Access Components(MDAC) version 2.6 or later.
and
The 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local machine.
Doing
  sh winetricks mdac27 jet40
gets past those.  Then you run into:

No error message available, result code: E_FAIL(0x80004005).
   at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionInternal..ctor(OleDbConnectionString
constr, OleDbConnection connection)
   ...
   at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.Open()
   at BabyReader.DataBaseCheckTable.Check()
in error.log, and
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {ecabb0c0-7f19-11d2-978e-0000f8757e2a} not
registered
on the console.  That UUID seems to be associated with COM+, and
is provided by comsvcs.dll, which Wine doesn't have.

Why a baby reading program needs COM+ is anyone's guess.  Presumably
just accidental lockin as a byproduct of using OleDb (and maybe .net).
