I agree with the overall sentiment that the tag reading system is a great product. However, I just wanted to chime in to say that this book is much better than the average tag book.

My daughter liked reading the story -- but, what keeps her coming back are the quizzes and games. This is where the SpongeBob book shines. There is a really nice section at the back with several pages of quizzes and games. The games progress in levels where the child builds upon what they are learning. For example, there is a section on 'past and present' tense. First the concept is introduced, then the child is asked to pick a few words which are then used in a funny story/example. Then they play a game where the tag reads words and they must choose whether the word is past or present. The child must understand the concept before being able to choose the correct answers. I really enjoyed watching my daughter figure this out.

Overall, I think this is a great book, very entertaining and keeps the kids interested over time -- which for me is important. I don't want to have to buy a new book every week to keep my daughter interested in the toy. There aren't that many books available and it would become expensive fast.

Very good product. My wife is actually using the Tag system to learn to read English better. It's so much fun for her that she doesn't even realize she's learning basic principles that all English learners must learn fo a solid foundation. Kudos to Leapfrog!

You can never go wrong with Spongebob! My 4 year old sons laughs and has so much fun with this book. My 9 yeard old daughter also gets a kick out of it. The voices and sounds are hilarious. This is a must have!!
