My son is 4 years old and if your child likes Bob the Builder, he will definately enjoy this leap pad book. It teaches a little bit of everything and he enjoys the book from front to back. It is definately one of the better leap pad books.

My son is 4 and he loves this Bob book. He prefers it to his Bob videos since he is playing with the characters as he reads the book. It's wonderful that Leap Frog makes books that go beyond teaching ABC's for kids because there are so many important things they need to learn, and this book has loads of them (bigger vocabulary, comprehension, numbers, shapes to name a few). As a former teacher, I highly recommend this book for the entertainment AND education.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money!!!!!!!, November 20, 2002

My son received his leap pad last Christmas. He discovered Bob the Builder this summer. Put the two together and you have the happiest 2 1/2 year old around. He loves the games, especially the musical ones, and has really learned his shapes and sharpened his thinking skills because of this book. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Don't think that your child is too young for these products. Even if you have to hold the pen for them, they are fascinated by the bright books and music. My son has defintely benefited from these products.
