Title: Let's raise the bar, parents!
Product review: My five and seven year olds sat mesmerized on either side of me as I read all seven of the original books to them within a four week period. They weren't bored, didn't miss the pictures and seemed to "get" much more of it than I'd thought they would. The videos are wonderful, but I wouldn't let them see them until they had finished all the books, because what they came up with in their imaginations was infinitely superior even to those. No, they didn't understand it the way a teenager or a 47 year old would (I was thrilled to read the series for the first time myself) but they now have something real on which to build, something to which they can return in their imaginations, and something to demonstrate to them what "real" writing is. Please don't cheat your children...or yourselves.
