My sister and I used to have something along those lines. It was a mini
record player/slide projector. The records were hard plastic or vinyl,
and they came with a stick with slides on it and a book. You would play
the record, and insert the slide stick. The record would tell the story
in the book (not word for word if I remember), and every time it would
beep you would pull the slide stick up one notch (maybe pressed a button
to do it for you, don't remember).
Somewhere in a box I still have some of the record/slide/books, but the
player is long gone. Some day I hope to find a new player at a flea
market.
