 Some examples are confusing Dec 29, 2009
By vanilla beaniyeh
I own the entire Tag Junior library. Read my reviews before buying books! (I wish I had researched before buying them all!)
The reason why this book gets a lower rating than the others I've rated is because sometimes the concept the book is trying to demonstrate is often confusing based on the examples they use. Here are the "opposites" they teach in this book:
-Start v. Finish*
-Slow v. Fast*
-Top v. Bottom*
-Over v. Under
-Wet v. Dry
-Inside v. Outside
-Near v. Far*
-Narrow v. Wide
-Last v. First
-Hello v. Goodbye*
Starred are the confusing ones.
Start v. Finish is demonstrated by a map where X marks Start and a finish line marks Finish. For children who are not familiar with the concept of maps, they won't get it. Not only that, but the example should be obvious as to which direction they are going in, but start to finish is only joined by a dotted line with a very small arrow at the end at Finish. Perhaps it should have a dotted line with large arrows on it pointing toward finish.
Slow v. Fast is also confusing because it shows one of the Backyardigans going on a ski slope in regular skis which represents Slow and Pablo on a snowmobile which represents Fast. The child would have to have a background knowledge of winter sports to be able to know that the snowmobile is motorized and therefore faster, but I live in a place that never gets any snow and my child didn't get what they were demonstrating based on this example.
Top v. Bottom was not clear at all. This concept is demonstrated by two snowboarding Backyardigans, one supposedly at the top of the mountain and one supposedly at the bottom. However, neither of them are on the mountain at all.
Near v Far is demonstrated by spaceships -- one is Near to reader, others are "Far" from the reader close to the moon out in space. To further confuse things, they included the earth on the page, yet it's not the base for comparison, so the child at first glance will not know what the spaceships are near to and far from -- "the earth or me?" The way they did this whole concept is confusing because it is the first and only concept that uses the reader as its base for comparison.
And finally, Hello v. Goodbye is confusing because Hello is demonstrated by a handshake and goodbye is demonstrated by a hand wave. Most people use waving for hello and goodbye, and some people do not shake hands at all and given the germophobia of the 2000s handshaking is becoming a little dated in America.
-----------------------------------------------
I usually like thinking outside the box, but when teaching a concept to toddlers, LeapFrog should be OBVIOUS with it. I mean, making the concept unclear is like writing a number backwards while teaching counting or writing a letter upside-down while teaching the alphabet. Overall, I like the idea/theme of the race to teach opposites, but I think they should change this book to make the opposite concept more obvious on some of the pages.

 Great Product Jul 13, 2009
By Cara Holland
This is a great book. I would not knock the book down to a one just because it is not compatible. The focus is the book and this book is great at teaching opposites. My two year old daughter loves her reader and this book and my five year old son uses her junior reader instead of his older reader. Great buy.

My daughter loves this Mar 15, 2010
By M. Church
My daughter loves the Backyardigans and loves her LeapFrog toy. She just turned 2 in January and it didn't take her long at all to figure out how to use this. She getting better now at answering questions the books ask. We also have the Dora the Explorer one and she loves that one too.
Tag Junior Book Jan 08, 2011
By Shandon C Lane
My daughter enjoys this product a lot!!! She is pretty rough with books so I was impressed by how it holds up against her. I recommend this for any child in the beginning stages of reading. It holds their attention more and it makes reading fun.

 NOT COMPATIBLE WITH TAG READER Jun 30, 2009
By Carl O
"PopPop"
Do not belive Leap Frog!! The Tag Reader can not utilize the Tag Jr. books. They think they will have a patch in mid July. Don't buy yet if you want to use with the Tag Reader. Very disappointing.
