If your child likes dinosaurs, they will probably like these DVD's. However, they are extremely similar to Pokemon cartoons...the characters even look the same...except that there are dinosaurs involved. The Dinosaur King cartoons are on Saturday mornings, but these DVD's put together several episodes in one disk. The launguage is not very appropriate for younger kids. (A lot of "you're an idiot", "you're stupid", "I hate you", just a lot of venomous talk in general). It seems like there is too much of that talk for my taste in these shows, but you have to weigh whether that is something that would bother you.My youngest son's birthday is coming up and loves this cartoon. He wants all his gifts to be of Dinosaur King. To be honest it's not my style of animation, but hey maybe I'm getting old. The story line is simple and mixes in a little comedy. Dinosaurs are the main characters with a lot of melee. The D.Team - Max, Zoe and Rex - must collect cards to be come the dinosaur king and beat the evil Alpha Gang. If your child loves dinosaurs then you can't wrong.
