Dora the Explorer is a 44-song collection of songs from the Nick Jr. cartoon that features the plucky Dora and her sidekick, Boots the Monkey, along with her cousin Diego, her trusty map, and her magic backpack. The show is entertaining and educational, and the songs from the show mostly strike a pretty good balance between the two; at least they don't sacrifice melody in favor of preachiness. The songs range from about 30 seconds to two minutes, with most falling right around the expiration of toddlers' attention spans. They will want to hear their favorites like "Boot's Special Day," "Popping Bubbles," and "Run, Dora, Run" over and over. Parents will most likely curse the day they bought this disc, but hey, you knew what you were getting into when you had a kid, right? ~ Tim Sendra A companion album to the hit Nick, Jr. animated TV show of the same, DORA THE EXPLORER follows the antics of the lovable title character and her friends as they embark on fun-filled adventures and sing lively songs. Not only endearing but educational, the record features Dora and her companions performing in both English and Spanish, as on "Reach Up & Catch the Stars!" where they sing "Stars! Estrellas!" or "Una Dia Especial," where they celebrate "a special day." The energetic tunes here are rarely much longer than one minute, making the album perfect for small children with easily diverted attention spans. For young fans of the television program, this disc is a must-have!
