This was one of those toys I had as a child in what seemed like a very long time ago and when I had to share such toys with my younger siblings. I remember the toy and how it worked but I don't actually remember listening to the story that came as a cassette. Anyway these stories were a bit of the fables that were quite common for the age such as with the Serendipity series so in a sense they were a bit of a dime a dozen.
As a result of the time gone by I just had to look it up and did find out that the included cassette definitely had more going on for the story than the actual follow-along books. As a result there is almost quite no point in reading the books separate but I am also not sure whether anyone has posted any of the Ruxpin stories so you can follow along if you only have the books like I do.
The Airship is pretty much the first book of the series as it introduces you to the main players such as Teddy, Grubby, Gimmick and Leota. Otherwise with a few exceptions the other books seem to be perfectly fine as standalone although the introduction of the Wogglies for instance may want to be pushed after the first just so you have an idea of which characters you are dealing with when you come upon them.
From there the books seemed to fit into two different categories - books and music books. The books of the series included a very limited amount of words per page and due to the briefness seem to leap from point-to-point since again the filling may have been on the tape. As for the other type these are much longer and wordier but as my much suffering husband said they are so repetitive why can't we get them to stop. The music books seem to come with more lessons to readers while the books are just concept art.
Tweeg Gets the Tweezles is one of the music books and one of its first singing numbers is a song about why it is so important to be neighborly even when your neighbors may vex you. For all that we are living with today and knowing the type of neighbors I had growing up this makes me wish for the older days. With all this aside it does give the reader a bit more of a look into the villain of Grundo although he doesn't often show himself and one of his henchmen while showcasing villains are much like us in their reactions to events occurring with them.
Lesson: Be neighborly to all your neighbors for you may need them and the you, only doctors can make a real diagnosis, try not to worry yourself with shadows. we are all alike in our responses and worries
