 Cute--but be careful if diversity is an issue. . December 13, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
We bought this book for a precocious little 3 year old friend. It was just right, except that his parents are gay, and there are references to "When Dad buys me shoes. . " or "When Mom takes me to the store. . "
Families come in all shapes, sizes and forms, and we forget sometimes that "Mom and Dad" aren't paired parental titles in all families.
Divorced families might present the same dilemma in giving a kid this book. I'd have thought that Jamie Lee Curtis would have been a bit more socially conscious.
 Big Words is a big hit! November 28, 2008
Another great book by Jamie Leigh Curtis and her illustrator Laura Cornell. I am a Childrens librarian, and enjoy reading ALL of her books to the children at story times! She really speaks to the children in a way they understand and enjoy.
Fastest delivery ever! November 26, 2008
Not only was the delivery fast, the book is even better than I thought it would be. It's just right for my four year old granddaughter who wants to use bigger words now that she's a big girl.
Big words should not be scary November 25, 2008
A great book for helping little budding readers tackle, understand and deal with "big" words.
Cute book November 25, 2008
Certainly kept my 5 year old quiet for 5 minutes. Very colourful with sweet illustrations.
