I was so excited to buy this, but my two year old son has not taken to it. I also bought the Little Touch animals book at the same time, and he has enjoyed that one immensely. But for some reason he ignores the Mr. Brown book.
He likes funny noises, and Mr. Brown's noises are not that funny. Most of them seem to be spoken by a person, rather than silly sounds. There are not a lot of pictures to push on each page, so my son gets bored quickly.
The story is good, so I think he may enjoy it when he gets older but right now it is a dud.

As the Little Touch books go, this is one of the best. The sounds effects and cadence of the story make this book serious entertainment for my 18 month old. She can play with this for a half hour straight without any attention from mommy.

Picked this up for my one-year-old daughter for Christmas. She enjoyed it insofar as her attention span would allow, which is about ten minutes a pop, but it wasn't her favorite LeapPad Little Touch. She also didn't have as much fun using it alone, so really it is something that she does with my wife or I.

It is pretty faithful to Dr. Seuss, but as the other commentator notes, it doesn't go that extra mile. What's included is fun and entertaining, but there could have been a little more content given the money you're shelling out.

So far this is our favorite Little Touch Reader title. It is entertaining on every setting for my 2 year old. The background music is great for every page. And there are lots of interactive spots on each page - all of them change for each level. Someone really sat down and thought about where a kid would be drawn to on each page, and what a suitable response would be.

I should set the stage by confessing that the book "Mr. Brown Can Moo!" is one of our favorites - I had the board book memorized by the time my dd was 4 months old from reading it so often.

We only own two other LTR books, a spider alphabet book and "How much do I love you". I was disappointed by the thin gloss of interaction in both of these titles. My dd will only give them a passing glance unless I play along with her. And even then, she'd rather read a regular book. But she'll play with Mr. Brown any time!

She loves the book and the sound effects. It's much tougher than the paper book and holds her interest longer.(21 months old)

My least favorite game for the Little Touch. The story and features are okayish but has as much color on the book as the traditional Seuss books.

A hard to find book for the Leap Frog Little Touch Leap Pad.
When children begin developing speech, this is a great and fun way to explore sounds
and introduce language.
This Dr. Seuss classic is fun and wacky.
We loved reading together and making crazy noises.
This is an excellent way to introduce early learning and development.

Now you can play your own guitar or piano to Laurie's songs. How fun is that? Great stuff!!!! Only one thing kept me from giving it five stars: The binding is really third rate on the book and the pages almost literally come out by just opening it up! ?? That really needs to be fixed...

Otherwise, just great and thanks to Laurie for creating such fun songs for our kids (and the adults like the "free time" while they're watching the DVD or watching Noggin's music!)!!
