Customer Reviews

Awesome Book!
My son is 5 and LOVES pirates! This book is great and comes with everything that a little boy who loves pirates would love to read / hear about . . . I also love the reading comprehension questions that go along with it!

Arggh! Treasure Ahead!
My four-year-old son and six-year-old daughter are enjoying the Tag system. This and the Ben 10 book are their favorites. They seem to prefer these two because there are more pictures to click on for a funny sound or comment than most of the other books.

In this book, a family (father, mother, brother, and sister) are pirates (really!). They fight off a band of 'traditional' pirates and use a treasure map to find a treasure. It is intended to be funny and playful, with lots of pirate jokes and physical humor in the tale.

Neither of my children have really used the books for reading or for the phonics games that are in the back of most of these books (including this one). Therefore, the educational value is not direct. That being said, I think that any time young children have a positive experience with a book, it is a learning moment. Tag lets children have these moments with their parents, as well as on their own.

Grandson loved it.
Purchased the tag reading system, along with this book for my Grandson's 5th birthday. He and his sister are limited to what they can watch on TV and movies, so this is something he could enjoy. He loved this!! Kept him busy in the car, and for hours on end. They have always been read to, so learning to read is a really big deal for him. Realize tho that it has to be downloaded on a computer, so they can't just open the box and start reading.
