3.0 out of 5 stars A Little Dry...., May 2, 2009

By	Molly n Britts Mom (Southern CA United States) - See all my reviews

I thought this would be a great DVD with pirates and singing, but it's a lot of on screen reading and my 3 year old gets bored. Tina Fey is entertaining, but kids don't see her as anyone different from the rest of the adults on the movie. The clay pirate short is cute, but for the first 15 minutes, the movie is mostly talking which doesn't capture my child's interest. The giant squid is a cartoon and is only on for a minute or so. I would think this would be better for 5 year olds.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Sesame Street Video, June 7, 2009

By	Latkitty (Sacramento, Ca USA) - See all my reviews

I love this episode as does my two year old son. He thinks the pirate songs are fun and this is another well made Sesame Street Video of the episode that ran on PBS. If you are looking for an all ELMO storyline- this is not it. Just a really good episode of Sesame Street that was put on DVD. We love it at our house and sing along with all the songs!

4.0 out of 5 stars Read, read, read, a pirate who loves to read......, September 17, 2009

By	Sophie "New mom" (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews

Very cute songs and skits about books and reading. My 2yr old loves it. She sings along & reads more because of this video.
