Big Words for Little People, is a good book to teach children new words. It tries to teach children words that might be scary to them. Like the word intelligence, it explains the words and ways to use it. ( )

This book is great to read to children that are a little older. It consist of many big words such as inconsiderate or privacy. This can help children to understand big words. Even though they are young does not mean they do not understand big words.

The drawings are very good and I learned new big words with this book. ( )

This is an informational book with bright, fun, watercolored pictures that fill the pages with "eye-candy." The content of this book is based off of big words that children are bound to hear used by their parents, but it gives them kid-friendly definitions in rhyming lines. The reading level of this book is for first through third grade. Some cirricular connections for this book are vocabulary, watercolors, and rhyming.

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0061127590, Hardcover)

I know some Big Words.
I'll teach them to you.
Although you are small,
you can use Big Words too.

Big Words aren't scary.
They're big fun to learn.
I was taught once
and now it's your turn.

The eighth hilarious picture book by the #1 New York Times bestselling team of Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell helps little people communicate in a big person's world. With grown-up words like cooperate, respect, patience and considerate, a big, boisterous and zany family celebrates the power of language and discovers that words—big or little—are the bridge that connects us all.
