From School Library Journal
PreS-K--Intensely bold, energetic color photographs of actual objects and controlled vocabularies make these concept books inviting and easy to use. Food identifies various types of fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, and dairy products and explains where they come from and how they help the body. Toys is similar in format, identifying the many kinds of toys and their uses and variations; e.g., textures are contrasted between a hard truck and a soft bear, jigsaw puzzles are shown in three levels of difficulty.
