Rating:  Summary: DORA Review: Anything to do with Dora is great. All her books are fun and educational in some aspect.

Rating:  Summary: Love it - would buy it again if it was lost or destroyed Review: This brightly colored board book is larger than average and quite sturdy. In easy-to-read font, each page contains one or two sentences in English with the Spanish translation below it or on the opposite page. I took two years of Spanish in high school. So although I am not a native speaker, I attempted to read (and mispronounce!) the Spanish to my daughters. Only 12 pages in length, it serves as an introduction to the primary characters (Dora, Mami, Papi, Backpack, Map, Boots the Monkey, Tico the Squirrel, Benny the Bull, Isa the Iguana, and the ever-so-sneaky Swiper the Fox). Dora and Boots do not go on an actual quest. Thus this book may be too basic for the avid Dora explorer. Try one of the more adventurous books, such as Dora's Rainbow Surprise.

Rating:  Summary: Love it - would buy it again if it was lost or destroyed Review: This is one of my daughter's favorite books. She's 15 months old and she has just started saying "Dota" every time she sees the book. She really enjoys the large pictures. She doesn't care for the TV show, but she's probably too little for cartoons now. I read this book to her every night before she goes to sleep and she just loves it. Oh, I only read this book to her in Spanish. She has plenty of English books, it's nice to have one that I can read to her in Spanish.BTW, other Spanish books that I recommend are Boots and Clifford y la hora de dormir
