Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-This wordbook is much too long and some of the terms used are far too sophisticated for the intended young audience. Each page features a simple picture and corresponding word or phrase. Got's inclusion of items such as "convertible," "onesie," and "TV and remote control" may overwhelm and frustrate youngsters, though most pages are more on target ("baby," "Mom," and "Dad"). Bold, cartoonlike illustrations are outlined in thick black lines and set against brightly colored backgrounds. A vocabulary list by category is included.

The best vocabulary book for babies!5
My son has learned to talk from this book! What I like most is that there is only one word and picture per page, which keeps their attention. The pictures are adorable! Plus the words are of everyday objects in your house. It is one of the few books that my son will sit still on my lap and read with me, and it's over 100 pages! It's his hands down favorite!

Great book for babies!5
I like this word book a lot, because there is only one picture and word per page. Many word books have too many things on one page which makes the page appear cluttered and busy especially for babies and toddlers. By having only one word and picture per page, young readers are able to focus on the page more clearly and understand what they are being shown. Also, the colors in this book are vibrant and inviting. The author does a good job of introducing words that a baby sees in everyday life. It is an excellent book to introduce your child to new words.

A Perfect Book5
I ordered this book for my son. He absolutely loves it! He brings it to me every night so we can read it together. He knows ball, cat, dog (sometimes known as woo, woo)and even plane. It is perfect when children first start to put words together. I love all the books by Yves Got. My son learns a great deal from them.
