Customer Reviews

Book binder upside down

Really confused as to why this book was binded upside down. Other than that it was in top tier condition and I feel like I can use it for both my 1 and 5 yr old

So Much to Look At, So Much to Learn!

A large book filled to the brim with words to learn. The layout is enjoyable to look at, with a large 2-page spread scene surrounded on the border with smaller related images - all labelled. The scenes show Arthur and his family at school, at the grocery store, at work, at play, reading, during the seasons, at the mall, at Grandpa Dave's farm, when Arthur grows up, etc. My 2 year old loves Arthur and loves looking at this book. There are so many words! Such a helpful, educational, and entertaining book.

Endless entertainment and learning!

My one year old LOVES this book. I'm sure it's ideal for older children just learning to read, but she really enjoys pointing to things and having me name them for her. Every object and animal you can think of is pictured in the book. There is not really a story, but each page has a "theme" and related pictures and words. We love it! And she is constantly learning new words as a result.

It is my daughter's favorite book

This book holds the attention of my 1 1/2 yr old for a half hour or more! Do I really need to say any more? She loves to point to the pictures and have me read the names. The best thing about the book is that I expect to use it for a few years. As she grows, the book has more to offer - ABC's, 123's, puzzles and plenty to spark the imagination.

Excellent book for preschoolers

My daughter loves to point at the pictures and say the words that goes with them. The words are put into familiar settings (home, grocery store etc.) She learns new words and enjoys recognizing the ones she already knows.
