The main reason my daughter was so excited about this movie was because of the pegasus shown on the front cover. She's so into horses and if they fly or have a horn...even better. Well, guess what...NO Pegasus in this movie! She kept asking where it was and when the movie was ending and still no pegasus...the tears came (she is a dramatic 4 yr old, but I was even disappointed for her). As it turns out, the pegasus is only in the "Special Features" section as a music video which is about 3 minutes long. What a disappointment. As it turns out she still enjoys the movie (it also comes with 2 other episodes: Dora's Jack-In-The-Box and Bark, Bark To Play Park), but I make sure we watch the music video a couple times before I turn it off. She's accepted it now, but still I wish I would have known before her Grandma bought her this movie.

My 2 year-old daughter and I couldn't wait for this one to make it to TV, so we borrowed it from our library, and I'm sure glad we did! In the double-length title episode, Dora is once again on a storybook adventure, this time helping to preserve the Crystal Kingdom's beautiful colors by retrieving its four magic crystals from a greedy king. This episode put a lot of emphasis on sharing, always a popular theme for the preschool crowd, and followed the usual format and the same old, beloved cast of characters. My daughter was really excited when the Snow Princess made a few brief appearances, while I greatly enjoyed Richard Kind (Paul from Spin City) doing the voice of the greedy king. I did have to roll my eyes when Dora and Boots got butterfly wings, envisioning the inevitable marketing of butterfly-winged Dora dolls for Christmas, but as my daughter thought that part was "awesome" I guess I can't complain too much.

The other two adventures included on this DVD are both great episodes too - one about Boots and Tico's first day of school, and the other a King Midas-like tale about a wish machine that makes bananas drop on Boots' head every time he says "bananas." Overall, a great, fun new Dora DVD!

Personally I can't stand Dora but my 4 year old niece loves her. So, if she's entertained (and quiet) when this is on I'm happy. I'm not sure of the educational value but my niece does pay attention and do the little movements and exercises. I'd recommend for the young kids.

DORA MOVIES ARE WONDERFUL FOR PEOPLE OF ANY AGE. MY GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER

IS TWO AND A HALF AND SHE LOVES THEM. AMAZON PROVIDES GOOD SERVICE GETTING THEM TO ME ALSO. THANK YOU

Perfect condition, no scratches, just in time for Christmas! Excellent gift for my 2 year old. I would definitely reccomend this DVD

I thought this was a almost new tape. The box came messed up and not rapped.

I wanted to return this because its so damaged.Its more trouble then what this tape is worth. I won't buy from this person again. I'm going to tell my friends who order from amazon not to order from this dealer. This tape was for my granddaughter birthday gift. I've been swipe by swiper.

This is a fun DVD of Dora the Explorer. My 2 year old grand daughter has watched it several times.

we love it all of us one of the better of the doras worth having in your collection and worth the price

A great purchase from Amazon! The DVD arrived quickly and safely. This movie is a long full movie and is super for viewing in the car on trips! I give this a 5 star review!

My daughter loved this movie so much on Christmas Day that I am most certainly thinking about getting another Dora DVD with a different title of course.....The seller of this DVD was very up front with me about the product and told me everything that was wrong with it and all (being no book and not correct case)..... The seller shipped me the product in a very fast and timely manner also.....I will buy from this seller again in the future.....Thank you!
