The book is cute, could have done without the sound October 31, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
We enjoy reading the book together, but I can't wait for the batteries to go dead. It's so frustrating to try to read the book with the baby constantly pushing the buttons to play the music. We almost have to fight to get the correct buttons pushed to match the story, because he's so busy with the music buttons he doesn't care about the story. Maybe if you have a quieter baby that enjoys sitting and listening, this might be a better match; but my baby is constantly on the move and it's hard enough to keep him interested in a story without the distraction.
Great book December 24, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this book for my 17 month old. He loves it. He goes for the book sometimes several times a day. The book is well made in that it will not fall apart: the binding, the part that holds the music, and the thickness of the pages. The book also doesn't stop playing if one of the buttons are pushed. I recommend it.
Nice little book... January 16, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I'm not a huge fan of interactive books as the sounds often seem superfluous, if not downright distracting. But, this book is comprised of five short songs with Thomas-related lyrics you can sing to the tunes of "The Wheels on the Bus," "Mary Had a Little Lamb," "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain," "Down by the Station," and the title tune, which I think is a "Thomas" original. Thomas is on every page with whichever friend is the subject of that song. The book is a nice size for a toddler to handle; perfect for the 18+ months age recommendation, although you certainly could use it with a younger child. And, each song plays in its entirety even if your little one presses another button before it's finished.
