The writer of the editorial that introduces this CD doesn't seem to know that Bob the Builder began as a show in Great Britain. The voices on this CD are the original Bob characters from the UK. And, they are so much better than the American versions (not as whiny)! My 3-year-old loves Bob and this CD, but my almost 7-year-old, who's not a Bob fan, loves the music, too. If I were stranded on a desert island with one kids' CD, this would be it!

I bought a used cassette tape of this album in desperation for a 3 year old boy going on a road trip. It took me a while to get used to the sound quality, which seems ever so slightly fuzzy to me, but other than that I have no complaints with this album. It's not whiney kids music, but it appeals to kids, especially fans of the Bob the Builder song.

My son started listening to this at age 3, and now, three years later, long after he's outgrown the Wiggles, it's still his favorite tape to listen to in the car.

I am always thankful for the makers of this CD, as well as to my son's other favorite James Coffee (of I Love Toy Trains fame).

The British accents don't bother my son at all, though personally I wish they'd chosen a woman with a slightly less chirpy voice for Wendy.

This is the best album to come out of Britain in some time. Much better than Amnesiac or anything by Travis or Coldplay or Starsailor or any of the new next Radiohead/Oasis bands. This album is actually fun!
