This box set includes four different paw patrol "stories." Each of the characters (Marshall, Ruble, Chase, Zuma, Rocky, Skye) are represented. There is one story that focuses on all of them and the the remaining three books focuses on a pair of the pups. The books are about the size of a small notebook (if you took an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper and folded it from top to bottom). The "stories" are short, short, short! There only 8 pages in each book. A sentence occupies only four of the pages. So, ultimately someone wrote a paragraph long story and then took sentence each and put it on a page. Also, I use the term story loosely because the sentences are more like action phrases and there is no actual story being told in any of these. There is a lack of flow or build-up. Unlike the cartoons themselves where there is a beginning, middle, and an end, these books lack true storytelling. There is an introduction to the Paw Patrol, and then, all of a sudden they rescue someone or help and it is The End. In plain English, the story is choppy. There is no crisis or conflict. The stories lack a climax. If these books employed the storytelling that they use in the cartoon, then I would rank this set higher; however, they do not.My son actually enjoys the box more than the books and my son loves books. So, I would bypass these had I known, but they make a decent stocking stuffer or gift for a kid who likes Paw Patrol and is about 18 to 30 months of age. A child older than 2.5 will probably be bored. My son is 3.5 and can and will sit for Beatrix Potter. The only reason why he's somewhat patient with these books is because he loves Paw Patrol in general.Therefore, I'm not impressed. The only thing likable about the "Friendship Box" is the box.
