Making a wish belongs in a children's picture book. This one is off to a good start, far as I'm concerned.

But does the moon need to have a face, engrossed in mugging at the nearest star in the sky?

As the child-simple plot unfolds, I do find it fascinating how everybody important has a face and a surreally cheery smile. You know, like the character called "Map."

I DO APPRECIATE THE PROBLEM SOLVING IN THIS DORA-BOOK

The plot defies logic (to this adult).
And the story may not be rich in subtlety,
but at least there are some words in Spanish;
also, there's a general worldview that one can find helpful friends everywhere.

I like that.

I'm not a Dora fan. Nor am I fan of branded merchandise in general - why should I pay good money to cultivate brand loyalty in my kid?

With that said, I'm even less a fan of this book than I would be, because it's not even as well-written as the episode it's based off of.

Save your money, and just let your kid watch TV.

I've never seen Dora the Explorer, but after reading a few books I have a fairly good idea why the preschoolers love her. Not the most exciting story for adults, but the series is a fun little interactive story. And in this case, who can resist trying to get the little star back home to the sky.

Hello, I would like my review here. First of all, the parents will understand me, I think. Personally, I used to read it to my younger daughter every night and only after that I started working on my discussion board post

I’m pretty sure my daughter watched this episode when she was small. 😅

Flo and Eadie loved the idea you could catch a star and return it to the sky.

Just got this one from M, so thank you for going out of your way to scan this book. :P

HUH. I must say, this book is beyond me. LOL. A little star that fell out from the sky? And needed Dora and Boots help to GO BACK in the SKY?? You kiddin' me? I guess that's why it's called Children's book. ;D

I like the first Dora's book I've read than this. It's more realistic? (maybe) than Dora the Explorer: Little Star. Oh well. For CHILDREN'S ONLY. :P

I remember reading this one the very first night in our new house here in Hawaii. We've read it over and over since then. Our girls love their Dora the Explorer books.

Little Star has fallen out the sky! It is now up to Dora and Boots to get Little Star back to it's home so we could make our wishes. Dora is a favorite among young children, so this story will be enjoyed.
