Solo Readers Emerge

First, on the Tag Reading system in general. My 3 and 5-yr-old boys love this system. And though I was disappointed at first that the books do not force them to highlight each word before the word is read to them, I have a different view now. The default process is that my son launches a page, and the automated reader reads the whole page to them. Here's why I now like this: My boys are thrilled to sit with these books and listen to stories. So while they are not learning to read by doing so, and not even getting the one-to-one word/sound association I'd hoped for, they are viewing reading on par excitement-wise with their other play activities.
My five-yr old actually read fairly proficiently by the time he had his first Tag reader, but he still loves to have a few of these books read to him by the "magic pen." My 6-yr old isn't as enthused, perhaps because he already reads so much on his own. T-Rex and Diego's Underwater Rescue are favorites of my 3-yr old. Lots of good sound effects. My 5-yr old loves Up! and (sigh) Walter the Farting Dog. That one came free with a purchase of a few others, for better or worse. With four boys, you can imagine the glee this book evokes.
Fantastic book, especially for dinosaur lovers!

My son received this book for Christmas, and he absolutely loves it! It's all about a little T-Rex and his mommy on a day built for roaring. After roaring all day, T-Rex's mommy goes out to find some food, but little T-Rex still wants to roar. He chases a dragonfly and ends up getting lost, so the book is all about his adventure trying to find his way home. The neat part about this book is the Tag system, with all of its neat sounds as your little one reads the book. As my son presses on each dinosaur with his Tag reader, it gives him fun facts about the dinosaur and even their sounds. It's really sparked his interest in dinosaurs. As I was putting him to bed last night he said "Mommy, did you know a T-Rex's legs were as big as a grown person??" It was adorable! We love our Tag reader, and this book is an excellent addition to my son's library!
Amazing and educational too

I bought my son the tag reading system for his 4th birthday this month. Since he is a huge fan of dinosaurs i decided to get him this book too. He loves the book alot, the sound effects for the roars are impeccable, the story is very engaging.I definitely recommend this book especially if your child is fascinated by dinosaurs. I give it four stars because he has had it for less than a month.

My four-year-old son is dinosaur-crazy, so when we decided to buy the Tag system for him and his older sister, this book was a no-brainer. It is funny and sweet -- not a bit scary. Both my son and my six-year-old daughter enjoy it. I would definitely purchase it again.
That being said, it has less of the 'magic' that the Ben 10 and the pirate tag books have. There are fewer pictures to click on, and therefore it is less interactive.

A relatively new device, embraced by my (grandchildren) 4 year old twins. It is a parallel to their LeapFrog toys. A definite vocabulary and skill builder.
