My son loves lift the flap books and he loves Dora, so we are always on the lookout for new items. This one was a real surprise. It is large and has many flaps on each page. The pictures are fun and silly. He really enjoys it. The numerous flaps and large fun pictures make this one a great buy.

This book is very colorful and has lots of flaps which my daughter, who is 18 monhts old, loves lifting and peeking what's inside! It's hard cover which is great and durable! The story is silly which entertains my 4 year old. I recommend this for any Dora lover!

When I ordered this book 2 weeks ago I was a stay at home mom that was feeling frustrated and unmotivated about my job. Now 2 weeks later I feel like I'm at the top of my game and I have a whole new outlook on my life and how it is going. I have been following the steps in the book to improve my life. This book is double spaced and really easy to read. Unlike other books this book gives you the tools and the know how to make changes in your life in a quick to read guide. If you are a mom and frustrated with your life or just think that it should be better or feel better then it does right now. Then purchase this book.

I would highly, highly recommend this book to all moms. As a new stay at home mom, leaving the working world was very exciting and a bit scary. I'm so glad I read this book and got such great advice early on. Instead of being fearful of the change, I feel inspired by my new role.

I love how the anticipation builds up in this book, as Dora and friends prepare for Isa's surprise party. My 16 month old daughter has had this book for about 4 months, and she continues to like it more and more. She gets excited when Isa comes through the door and then again when the pinata breaks. Like other Dora books, a little bit of spanish is incorporated, and Dora asks questions. There are so many objects for children to point out in all the Dora books.

My daughter had The Surprise Party and A Day at the Beach since she was 6 months old. She's now 13 months old. We lost "A Day at the Beach" because we were carrying the two books everywhere with us. The Surprise Party is in shreds from reading it over and over again. She loves the story, point out the characters and different items in the book, like hats and baloons. Most of all she loves to yell "Surprise, Happy Birthday Isa!" and clap when it's time. Even though this book is always out and available she never lost interest in it. We always carry it with us in the car and at restaurants.

Dee wants to be alone snowboarding. One day, he feels that he is being watched.

dee has a secret. An orphan with a lot of money. He loves snowboarding. One day, While snowboarding in the forest, He does not know that he is being watched!

This book has many characters. This book has a different variety of babies such as a brave Baby, Twin babies, and a scared baby. Tommy (the leader) is brave, strong, and bald. Chucky, who is a scared baby and is best buddies with Tommy. Phil and Lil are twins, Phil is a boy and Lil is a girl. They sometimes don't get along well, but they still live with each other. Kimi, who is Chucky's new little sister, has so much imaginative ideas that the babies have something fun to do Everyday. The problem in this story is that Stu's new invention (the flying Dactar) broke and sent the babies traveling back in time to Italy. The solution was that they have to fix Dactar and Go back home.

My reactions to the book were that I was shocked to read about the babies traveling back in time. My feelings were that those babies are crazy; when I was a baby I would never have been that brave.

I would highly recommend this book to 7 years olds. The reason being that they are still developing an imaginative mind. I would not recommend this book to adults because it will make their learning skills go down. For the reason being this book would not entertain them.

Tommy's daddy is working on his latest invention, the Flying Dactar. But of course, like his other inventions, it doesn't work very well. He leaves it, and the babies crawl in. Before they know it, the Dactar transports them back to Florence, Italy, in the sixteenth century.... and then breaks down, stranding them in the past. While Angelica decides to find a palace, the others decide to search for the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci, hoping he can fix their broken machine. Along the way, they see the sights of the historic city and eventually meet Michaelangelo and da Vinci, and thanks to Angelica, fall under suspicion of being spies. I reccomend this very funny and very cute book to all fans of Rugrats, whatever their ages.

Spongebob is invited to Sandy's house. But when, Spongebob visits, he decides to get out of the place because no water!

I really like this book but sadly the dog ate it so my mummy bought a new one. My dog is called Bill and he ate it and had to go to the vets afterwards.

I couldn't belive it when I went through the atic of my house and found my tatterd and well-used copy of The Team On and Off the Set. Ever since Ghostwriter went off the air, I've missed Gabby, Jamal, Lenni, Tina, Alex, and Rob, my only insight into the world of mysteries on TV. I grew up with the show, and to read the book was going back in time to my childhood again. Thank goodness it's on reruns on the cable channel Noggin now!

Ghostwriter was always my favorite show. I was pretty upset when it went off the air. One day, I just happened to find a copy of "The Team On and Off the Set" at a used bookstore. I was so happy! This book tells a lot of information about the actors of Ghostwriter. It's a perfect book for any Ghostwriter fans!

There is a reason "The Teenage Human Body Operator's Manual" is in its 5th printing. This is an easily accessible and entertaining manual for preteens and teenagers tackling the tough issues facing today's adolescents. It provides candid and helpful information on topics including nutrition, hygiene, communication, physical health, stress, anger, depression, substance abuse, STDs, sexual assault, abusive relationships, steroids, eating disorders, tattoos, piercing, and branding, safer sex, condoms, sexual preference, [...], birth control, and pregnancy. It also presents a helpful 5 step process for changing bad habits. As a school-based behavioral health psychologist who has worked with over 1,000 adolescents in the past decade, I highly recommend this book for teenagers, teachers, health educators, counselors, parents, and anyone else who has the opportunity to work with kids.

This book--printed to look like an automobile owner's manual--is just the right blend of humor and seriousness. I use it to help teach groups of foster children about basic lifeskills. We always start with the last half of the book, that includes the "Routine Checkup." This is a questionnaire (multiple choice) that helps kids get in touch with their habits, and helps them learn how to change a habit and develop good ones.

Kids often laugh at the book when they get it, but it is there for them with accurate information when they have a question about anything that comes up in their teenage years--peer pressure, drugs and alcohol, sexuality, exercise, eating right, taking care of themselves, anger, body changes, etc.

Some of the illustrations (all ink drawing/cartoons by the illustrator) were a bit goofy looking for my taste, but my son says, "Dad, you're trippin'. They're cool." It's the best $12 I ever spent for my own son, and I highly recommend this book.
