This was not what I was looking for. I guess I should have read the ad a little bit more. My kids liked it. It did have some coloring on the pages. No big deal. Thank you.

Donkey Kong is a classic. I love everything about DK. His book is excellant, although I like his video games better.

THIS BOOK IS DA BOMB!!! IT'S ABOUT THE MONKEYS WHO GET THEIR BANNANAS STOLEN FROM SOME BAD GUYS... THIS A GREAT BOOK I RECOMEND IT 2 PEOPLE WHO LOVE DONKEY KONG AND DIDDY KONG!!!!!!!!! ALSO..... READ THE 2 BOOK RUMBLE IN THE JUNGLE!!!!

This is basically the story events of the Donkey Kong Country video game put into a written format (with pictures) for children. It would be a great book for any kid, especially one working on reading skills. The font size is quite large as well. Some of it reminds me exactly of the writing style I had when I was about eight years old, and I think that perhaps that could have been at least a little improved. Otherwise, it's fun and enjoyable.

It just sometimes surprises me when it comes to strategy guides for video games, and from the gamemakers and how they can be so bound in the opposite directions with help for video games. That was the case then, and now. With this strategy guide for Donkey Kong Country, it really doesn't seem to bring out a whole lo with not enough visual help within each course, and a failing grade for access to all the bonus levels and features. Arguably, even though it was issued in 1995, when Donkey Kong Country was only on the Super Nintendo, there just isn't enough here to take on the masters. If you have a the original authorized guide only from Nintendo, whether it is from then, or the recent one for the Game Boy Advance, stick with it. Otherwise, don't buy this guide.
