  • Toddler loves it!
My toddler loves this book since he is obsessed w/ ocean animals at the moment. The book is kinda heavy, but quality is good and pictures are nice and bright. He loves to pop them as we read, so it's great for hand coordination for my toddler and learning to count as he ready.

  • Fun for Parents and Kids
This book is so fun even as a parent to poke the dots. It's great sensory book to reengage kids who lose focus quickly with reading. It is a very heavy and stury book, so it's one to keep at home and not take on the go. I do love the durability with how thick the pages are. 10/10 recommend it for your child's personal library. ... show more

  • Great book!!!
Such a great fantastic gift my just over one year old is very very happy with it even my five year old loves it. As you go through the book it just automatically resets the pops for next time through. The kids don't seem to care about reading the book so much as just popping the bubbles. Out new favorite book for sure. My one year old is so in love. I will find her just sitting with her book flipping the pages and popping the bubbles. Over and over again. Such a great book. We have had sinc Christmas about 2 weeks now and it is heavily used. Unfortunately our seam has tore on this one. A little rough on this book the older kids where. I'm really sad because the baby is so I'm love with it. I'll just get another it's that good. I have taped the binding together. But since the pages are very thick to hold the buttons it still falling apart inside. I did what I could to fix it, but it's probably lost cause. I will just get another for her because it is amazing. The pages are thick pages too. Honestly, as of now they don't even care about the story in it. Which is cute, but we are more focused on just popping right now. If you think my review is interesting or helpful, please rate it as "helpful." I always enjoy writing reviews of products and try to give honest opinions. I base most of my purchases on reviews from others. I know that honest and helpful reviews can make all the difference in a purchasing decision. ... show more

  • Bright and Happy!
Bought this book for my grandson for when he comes to the beach. I liked that it is interactive but not noisy and loud. The ocean theme is so cute and the book is sturdy. The book is heavy.

  • Another hit in the series, but could count up instead of down.
These Poke-A-Dot books are a hit in our house and have been from infancy and continue to be well liked now through preschool age. We were thrilled to see a third title become available. Pros: -educational counting from 10 to 1 (down only, though -- see suggestion note below) -sensory integration pushing the button, feeling & touching as you count, and hearing the satisfying pop -easy to manipulate buttons for little, tiny hands (my infant can do it without struggling) -appealing to infant, toddler, preschooler -fun rhyming words, a bit of a mouthful in places, though -nice font and size to help pre-readers and beginning readers with letter and word recognition without taking over the pages (similar to the font that most children learn to write in school) -use over and over, holding up well (except for binding, see note below) -no batteries required -not overly loud so that it is annoying -reasonably priced, compared to other board books that don't have the popping feature Cons: -So heavy, need to help kids for safety -Binding not as sturdy as it could be, especially for the weight of this book -The third book in this series that counts down from 10 to 1, no variation whatsoever (see note below) Suggestion to Publisher for Improvement: I mentioned this in my Poke-A-Dot Old McDonald review and feel it is worth repeating here, as I find this one feature to be lacking, yet again. The counting in this Ocean themed book could easily have been reworked to count from 1 up to 10, reverse from 10 down to 1 as it is, in my teacher opinion. ALL three books in the series (McDonald, Little Monkeys, Ocean) ALL count down, none count up = disappointing & repetitive. What about some variation to expand learning? Plus, most children naturally learn to count up before they learn to count down, so sequentially, this would appeal to early learners and help build that number sense. In my professional and personal opinion (as teacher for 10 years prior to being a mom), it would add a great deal to this book and to the series educationally, as well to offer variation, even if it means reworking the skeleton for manufacturing. I'd also love to see some alphabet integration as well in the future. So many possibilities for this format... as a teacher and mom, I could name at least 10 ideas for these books in under 30 seconds... hope you see the potential for more in the series that can truly support good early learning! Note regarding Amazon.com customer service: We pre-ordered this very early on & had a low price guarantee, and we loved that option from Amazon. Unfortunately, the book was listed mistakenly as a bath book, which it is not, only water themed as the topic. However, Amazon was WONDERFUL in immediately addressing my request to have the online product description fixed right away and they also smoothed over our order as well. Kudos to Amazon! We have never been disappointed with their customer service. This was no exception. ... show more

  • So fun and interactive!
My kids love this series! It is very fun and interactive 9month to 5 years old and they all love it! Decent quality for a children’s book!

  • Fun visually, can hear a click or pop auditorily when pressing the bubbles to count, nice gift!
Not a thing to dislike! My niece is all smiles with it & it's inexpensive! Excellent, thick pages, page by page. Definitely could stand alone as a gift if you cant go above $15! Can be read to the child & work on counting too!
