Of course Dr. Suess's words were wonderful and I liked how simple the page lay outs were (compared to some cluttery leap frog books) I did NOT like the un needed ugly phrases that the Leap Pad people added. (the bumble bee was rude and cruel!) Even my son said "Mom that was UGLY!" to some of the phrases. And the voices of some of the characters sound almost sinister. Maybe the "goth kids" grew up and got jobs at leap frog, but as I remember Dr. Suess he was funny and quirky NOT creepy. Sorry leap frog guys, I feel that you missed the point, and tone of Dr. Suess's wonderful books. I feel that some of the phrases in this book are NOT age appropriate. I would like to see more "innocent" books where they are not cynical or cruel to each other.(3-5 year olds should not be forced to be cynical!) I guess I am picky, I also don't let my son watch sponge bob, or tom and Jerry (too violent) BUT if you are not picky and think sponge bob is great, then you will probly like this book. every mom is different....
