Review

The original My First Word Book sold over 1.5 million copies around the world, and now the book is back--revised, refreshed, and ready to entertain. This colorful, oversized volume introduces kids to the world of words with over 1,000 photographs and illustrations. Objects are arranged by category (such as "In the garden" or "Pets") or concept (such as "Colors, shapes, and numbers" and "Opposites"). This essential book can be used for hours of happy browsing, a launching pad for countless stories, or as a fun way to get children started on the road to reading. (Baby to preschool)

From Publishers Weekly

This bountiful catalogue of words in a typical preschooler's world marks the debut of the U.S. imprint of Dorling Kindersley, British innovators of the colorful photographic nonfiction identified with the Eyewitness series (Knopf). Crisp photographs and a few supplemental drawings of familiar household objects, foods, toys and clothing are neatly arranged on the spreads. A neighborhood post office and library, items in a supermarket and animals on a farm appear against ample white backgrounds--which help focus attention on these clearly labeled illustrations. Several energetic, brightly clad youngsters demonstrating "actions" and "playtime" are particularly engaging. This is a valuable first pictorial dictionary for youngest readers; older children may also enjoy using the index to match up objects, words and page numbers. Ages 4-8.
