Great... August 28, 2004

Since the description of this does not give you a good grasp of exactly how the book is set up I will first fill you in on that. The first couple of pages are a maze game, which quite frankly I see no purpose for and really is not interesting to my child...might work for other kids though. Following that are the 26 letters of the alphabet in capital and lower case tracers each with a game area at the bottom of the page. The last few pages are game pages with simple three letter word tracers. Okay onto the review...

We got my son a leappad plus writing for Christmas last year (he was 3-years-old, now 4). Well needless to say he has become very bored with the Pre-K books available so I got this one. He has been doing tracer pages learning how to write his name for a little while now and I thought this would reinforce him wanting to learn how to write other letters not in his name. Much to my surprise he is not even remotely interested in doing the tracer area of the pages, however, the games at the bottom of the pages really hold his interest quite well. While he is not yet really learning how to write the different letters the little games at the bottom are teaching him how to spell simple words. This is very exciting for my son as he is finally starting to understand the ABC's have more purpose than just a song! While he is not really interested in tracing a whole page of A's or any other letter he gladly traces the simple three letter words at the bottom of the pages that are associated with the games, thus still teaching him how to write some letters. As a result of this he has learned to spell cat, cow, mop, dog, and gum which he can verbally do now without the word being spelled out in front of him. The game mode is simple to understand and the directions are fairly straightforward. Occasionally, he runs across a word he doesn't understand because it hasn't been taught to him yet, like buzzard, but do to his curiosity it provides a great reason to teach that word. Overall I give this 5 stars...even though it didn't get him excited about learning to write his letters.

Would Highly Recommend! July 22, 2005

We just purchased this book for our 4 year old son to go along with his new leap pad writing and microphone system. We wanted our son to start learning to write all his letters and this book is a very great way for him to practice his letters. He really likes to trace his letters and then practice doing some on his own. This is one of the largest books I have ever gotten, its over 50 pages! It has a page for each letter upper case and lower case. As well as their is 3 letter words to learn to spell and sound out and trace over. There is games on each page and even some mazes to play in the front of the book. My son loves the new leap pad system and really likes this book. We are going to also get the other writing book for Pre-K. In one of the starter books we got it has a page from the Pre-K book of writing and the letters talk and make funny sounds. My little boy laughs and giggles each time he traces the letters. They letters don't really do that in this book, so that took a little of the fun out of it, but each time you trace a letter it will play a cute little song or sound and say good job if you traced it the right way. I highly recommend it and we are very pleased with the book. It says ages 5 and up, but my son is 4 and has no trouble with the lettering, the pre-k is even easier but from what I gather is only upper case letters. That is the main reason we purchased this book because I wanted both upper and lower case letters for him to practice.
Next year when he starts school he will be able to write his name and address as well as he will be able to write quite a few 3 letter words that he has learned from this book. Leap frog products are all wonderful, and this book has helped my son with learning to write!
Money well spent for this book! With all the work books and things I previously bought to get my child to learn to write his letters, this book really was'nt too costly. If you are thinking of purchasing this leap pad book- you'll be happy you purchased it once you see your child mastering writing skills in as little as a few hours!

Leappad Reading and writing December 23, 2009
Nevien A. Abdelreheim (Sterling, VA USA)
I bought this book for my sun who is 3 1/2. he didn't really care about it that much even when I was playing with him. The system is kinda booring. I guess that's why Leap frog stoped selling it.
May be it's more appropriate for older kids.
