Dora's Birthday Surprise! (Dora the Explorer) (Little Golden Book) Hardcover – August 10, 2010

Our daughter just got into Dora, and enjoys the repetitive features of the show...i.e. the map, backpack, swiper etc. that make these good bedtime stories. There are also little educational bits like asking them to count or know their colors which are good reinforcement.

Dora's book is very nice. The colors are so bright and the story is not only cute but as always there are lessons in there too.My little Grandaughter, Claire, loves everything associated with Dora! She will love this too as books as she puts it, "Are my favorite, I LOOOVE IT!"

my 3 year old daughter loves Dora and this was the perfect addition to her bookshelf. It was simple and fun...she loved answering the questions and following along...it was much like the show. We gave it to her for her birthday and she simply loved it

Great for Dora the Explorer lovers. Easy to read. Good illustrations.

I bought this as part of a birthday gift for my little niece. She enjoyed flipping through the pages and wanted to read the book numerous times. The colouring of the pictures is really good. Why four stars? I thought the quality in terms of the overall book wasn't as good as it should be.

Got this for my 3 year old girls birthday and she LOVES it. She was so excited to go on a birthday adventure with Dora. The story is cute and she wants to read it again and again.

Bought this for a little boy who adores Dora but doesn't have this book yet. I've no doubt he will love it.

It's Dora's birthday, and she gets three clues to figure out what her parents got her. She invites the reader (or child of reader) to help her find the clues, then add them up to see what it is. Children take an active role in participating, and the clues are not overly easy. A perfect birthday gift.
