3.0 out of 5 stars Hours of Fun! Until..., March 28, 2003

This review is from: Bob's Recycling Day (Paperback)

This is the book that got my 2-yr old hooked on Bob the Builder. Before he realized there was TV show or videos or even toys, we got this as a gift, and he could not stop playing with it. Eventually, when he realized there was so much more to the BTB world, his appreciation for this book skyrocketed.

He has learned a lot from the book, progressing from just putting the stickers anywhere in a big pile, to placing them intelligently (like the garbage bags in Scoop's digger, and Bird on Roley's roof). As with all BTB toys and books, he loves to go through and name everyone and sing the songs about them. In all, we got a lot of use from this.

So why only three stars? Because eventually, theh stickers just stopped sticking (about 3 or 4 months of frequent use). They have no "cling" anymore and tend to just curl up when you open the book. We've tried dampening them and pressing them between the pages of a book, but the thing is just tapped now and has become a source of frustration to both son and his parents. And it's too bad becuase he still likes it and wants to play with it. Also, as a parent, be warned that you'll be keeping track of over 40 little pieces, and God forbid you lose the Pilchard sticker or one of the Dizzies.
