Words Words Words
Vocabulary is an essential ingredient for
learning to read and for school success.
And when a child knows more words it means
they have more knowledge about the world!
But sometimes it is hard to learn words if you
don t hear people use those words around you.
What I love most about this book is that so much care
went into picking just the right words. These are the
rare words that children don t hear often in everyday
conversations, yet they will encounter these words in
school and in books and will need to know their meanings.
The just-right words combined with the fabulous
illustrations and definitions offer a fun and engaging
way to build children s vocabularies.
