Richard Scarry’s ABC Word Book
Book Review
It’s a fantastic book for super young readers as there’s so much to learn and it’s a book that he can grow with
My two year old son absolutely loves this book.
The colourful and detailed illustrations have been captivating along with the story-telling captions and descriptive words.
At present, he is loving cars and he has been choosing this book as there are so many different types of cars in the book!
We have been able to go through the different type of vehicles eg. fire truck, ambulance, ice cream van and use it to learn more colours.
He’s also still a bit obsessed with Pumpkins from Halloween so when he spotted the two pumpkins he was super happy!
It’s a fantastic book for super young readers as there’s so much to learn and it’s a book that he can grow with.
Whether the child is obsessed with animals, planes, cars, there’s something for every interest.
This book is going to be one that I know we will often be reading together – I can already tell!
About the Book
This book is a fun way for a child to learn their ABCs with Richard Scarry and his friends! Parents can also use the pictures to introduce new vocabulary and talk about colours and vehicles and what the animals are busy doing.
Each double page spread is packed with words starting or finishing or including a specific letter of the alphabet.
The letters are highlighted in bright pink to emphasise the learning point.
It’s busy and it’s bright and it makes learning your alphabet fun.
