3.0 out of 5 stars Daughter likes it, Mom does not, November 12, 2004

This review is from: Dora's Easter Basket (Dora the Explorer) (Paperback)

We have just about every Dora book made. So this is no exception. While I am usually very happy with all of them, I am not thrilled with this one. The story just does not flow as well as the other Dora books too. I find myself adding words or sentences where they seem to be omitted and skipping others that seem tacked on for no apparent reason. On the other hand, my daughter really enjoys the book, especially finding the eggs on each page. And it does have some matching, color recognition features, so it has some redeeming traits! Basically, I think it could be better, but if you have a little Dora fiend, she's sure to love this one too.

1.0 out of 5 stars "Easter" is in the Title, but the word "Easter" isn't in the book, March 17, 2006

Surely you remember going on egg hunts as a child...

What? You say you went on "Easter" egg hunts, but never an "egg hunt?"

Sorry, but the PC police have arrived, deleting any reference to a Christian religious holiday.

It is absurd, ridiculous, and offensive to delete the reference to this holiday...especially with the false use of the word in the title (after all, one would think that one would learn a bit about Dora's "EASTER" basket).

Strange that this publisher doesn't seem to have a problem with using other holidays in the actual bodies of other Dora books, hmmmm?

That said, our 4-year old loves it, with Daddy constantly adding the word "Easter." There is educational value to this book, on more levels than our child realizes, unfortunately.
