Best Word Book Ever: A Picture Book for Early Readers to Build Vocabulary and Literacy

It’s so good to sit down with your child and point the different items out great way for them to learn new words I used this on my own children and then my grandchildren and I just bought one for my friends future grandchild where I’m going to a baby shower in October Can’t recommend enough!! and

Lo he comprado para mi hija de 2 años. Tras leerlo con ella me he acordado de que lo tuve yo cuando era pequeño (tengo 47), y me encantaba! Las ilustraciones son bonitas y divertidas. A mi hija le encanta fijarse en todos los detalles (que hay muchísimos) y plantearme preguntas realmente graciosas y difíciles de responder a veces... :-) También es una ventaja que sea en inglés ya que sirve también de repaso y descubrimiento de muchísimas palabras que está aprendiendo gracias al libro. Todo el libro son escenas "cotidianas" en diversos escenarios de un mundo "real" en que conviven amistosamente toda clase de animales como ciudadanos ejemplares. Nada de ciencia ficción de ésta que hay ahora para niños que no la entiendo ni yo. Recomiendo todos los libros de Scarry (también compré la colección de 10 libros) porque en mi opinión son totalmente atemporales (aunque se vean en ellos objetos "obsoletos" que los niños ya no reconocen, por ejemplo el teléfono no-movil y la tele "gorda") y las ilustraciones son simplemente geniales.

Un libro che aiuta i piccoli ad apprendere tante parole nuove; ho comprato la versione in inglese per mio nipote che non abita in Italia e parlerà inglese; per anni ho comprato molti libri di Richard Scarry per i miei figli, ormai adulti

Every child needs this book. It's my go-to baby gift. Before kids can follow a story they can look for things and talk about them. Great for interacting. My oldest is fifty. My youngest is 25. This book stands the test of time. Get it out when the child is about a year old. It will last through toddlerhood.

My parents use to read this book to my sister and I when we were young (3-6yrs old) and they use to call out the names on the page and we had to find it. We learnt very quickly and enjoyed the colourful pages. I only remembered we use to have this book when Amazon recommended this book and others by the author and purchased it for my son (age 2yrs). Boy, did his eyes open up wide!!! He already knows a fifth of the words before the book, and now he his learning more with it and enjoying all the characters and sketches on each page. So glad it is still in reproduction. Now, my memories are coming back every time we go through a new page and I call out the names of the words for my son!! I recommend others to get this book for a great way for toddlers to learn more words!!
