Summary

This exciting collection of 1，000 words will broaden young children's vocabulary， and strengthen their early reading and writing skills。

Arranged thematically， topics include Me and My Family， Animals， How We Look and Feel， Around the World， and I know。。。 Colors， Shapes， Numbers， Weather， and Seasons。 There are also four "story style" spreads that tell a simple narrative and inspire storytelling skills: for example， All in a Day is about a young child's typical day， and "If I Were a Pet" looks at a dog， cat， rabbit， fish， and pony， and imagines what these different animals might like to do。

The book is packed with clearly labeled pictures， encouraging picture-and-word association， which helps early reading， and every page features short sentences for children to finish that reinforce grammar and encourage early writing skills。 The words have been chosen with the help of a leading educational consultant， Penny Coltman， and include a combination of useful and imaginative nouns， verbs， adjectives， and adverbs。

Young children will be amazed and delighted by all the fascinating real-world photos， things to spot， entertaining artworks to talk about， and incredibly useful words！ This fun and educational picture word book is a must-have first reference title for parents who are keen to develop their child's language and literacy skills。

good for kids

One of the easiest ways to teach Spanish is to learn words in groupings around a common theme: clothing， rooms of the house， animals， occupations， etc。 More advanced students can use prompts to tell stories。 I was thrilled to find that this book uses both of those techniques plus a few other twists。Directions are in both Spanish and English so it doesn’t matter which is your primary language; you’ll be able to use this book without any trouble。 Because it’s organized by subject and has many word One of the easiest ways to teach Spanish is to learn words in groupings around a common theme: clothing， rooms of the house， animals， occupations， etc。 More advanced students can use prompts to tell stories。 I was thrilled to find that this book uses both of those techniques plus a few other twists。Directions are in both Spanish and English so it doesn’t matter which is your primary language; you’ll be able to use this book without any trouble。 Because it’s organized by subject and has many words， phrases or questions associated with each topic， the book can be used repeatedly by the same reader and still be fresh with new things to learn。As students become more advanced， they will be able to use the book by themselves。 New students will need help until they have a basic understanding of whichever language they are trying to learn， including pronunciation and basic identifications。The book is well made with nice end papers， very heavy varnished pages and full color artwork。 The characters included are all races， ethnicities， body shapes， abilities and disabilities， ages and shades of skin tone。 Everyone should be able to find someone that looks similar to themselves。 Kudos to the folks at DK Publishing for being inclusive！All things considered， a great addition to any family library 📚 。。。more

4。5You see。。。 I have no children， so why did I read this book？Maybe I was bored， or maybe I thought that a book for kids might have words that I've never heard of and thus I could enhance my vocabulary alongside the very remainder of little literacy skill I have left in me。If in the near future I happen to have children （not very likely， just saying， I'm pretty childfree） then this would be a perfect book for them to learn some words。I'd give this a 5 if there were more words to go through， alth 4。5You see。。。 I have no children， so why did I read this book？Maybe I was bored， or maybe I thought that a book for kids might have words that I've never heard of and thus I could enhance my vocabulary alongside the very remainder of little literacy skill I have left in me。If in the near future I happen to have children （not very likely， just saying， I'm pretty childfree） then this would be a perfect book for them to learn some words。I'd give this a 5 if there were more words to go through， although the 64 pages were packed with different kinds of words that would be very useful for a kid to describe people， things， and etc。 。。。more

An amazing book for young children who are learning new words。 Due to the selection of words along with puzzles， games and other fun features， this colorful and vibrant book is a great item for the non-English speaking kids as well。

What a delightful bumper book of early words。 From the super-busy bright yellow hardback cover art， you can tell that why this book will be a firm favourite。 There are lots of "my first word books" and from experience， they are adored by inquisitive early readers （and before）。What DK have added to the usual approach is a smart way of embedding further learning， in line with early curriculum/learning guidelines。 This is not just as laid out in an explanatory page at the front， but is added throug What a delightful bumper book of early words。 From the super-busy bright yellow hardback cover art， you can tell that why this book will be a firm favourite。 There are lots of "my first word books" and from experience， they are adored by inquisitive early readers （and before）。What DK have added to the usual approach is a smart way of embedding further learning， in line with early curriculum/learning guidelines。 This is not just as laid out in an explanatory page at the front， but is added throughout the book beyond the initial contents。 As an example， there are questions that allow a child to look for groups of items （clothes suitable for hot or cold days， places to eat or places to visit）， noises are used to bring pictures to life and questions that allow further expansion of the items with feelings or extra description。 These allow for extra expansion of vocabulary and children love repetition and being able to further build on existing knowledge。 A well though out approach。The pictures are all very colourful and easy to identify。 The sheer volume allows for a diverse range too。 On the sea animals there's a pretty sunstar。 A what？ Even I learned something。 Many of the animals use photographic imagery， cropped on to the scene to enable recognition and bring them to life。 A lovely idea。 Near the end are shapes， colours and numbers to aid learning in those areas and after that section are a few pages on building your own stores， which is a clever way to bring the book to life even further。A marvellous early learning book from Dorling Kindersley， capturing all the great bits of many books before it and adding new and worthwhile content in abundance。 。。。more
