Elmo's Big Word Book (Sesame Street Elmo's World) Book

Elmo's World is full of fun things to do and see, from the playroom to the park to the grocery store. In this big board book, the beloved furry red Sesame Street character shares all his favorite places and things to do. Each of the 5 two-page spreads is tabbed with a picture of one of the featured items within. A muddy pig represents a visit to a farm, a tricycle indicates a section on the park, and Dorothy the goldfish is the official ambassador for the playroom. Readers will enjoy pointing out the items in each display and spelling out the captioned titles: train set, notebook, goat, picnic basket, milk carton, etc. As there is a range in difficulty of the words (from ball to dictionary), kids can grow with the book, returning to it time after time as their vocabularies develop. The fact that virtually every inanimate object (including skateboards and cash registers) sports a pair of eyeballs à la Blue's Clues may grate on the nerves of adult readers, but kids won't bat an eye.
