Product ReviewsRichard Scarry's Best Little Word Book Ever (Little Golden Book) - GOOD

I think Richard Scarry books are great.

This isn't really a 'story' book; it is the point and discuss book. Richard Scarry wrote lots of books (probably a couple hundred) in the late 70's and early 80's (he died in the mid-90s). I don't remember any of them growing up. However, my husband had them and my mother in law liked them. So, I have bought probably 20 for my son. He loves 'Cars, Trucks & Things That Go'. Again, a picture book, but he is almost 3 and loves the pictures and captions. His story books all have the same characters. Mr & Mrs Cat, Helda the Hippo, Lowly Worm, etc. so they are all various animals (or worm in the above case). The stories are quite entertaining for both of us. The illustrations are great too. A lot of his books, especially the picture books, come in hardcover and they are larger. I would recommend this author and all of his wonderful books. They are still carried in bookstores though so you could check him out first to see if he appeals to you before you buy on EBay.Read full review...

Good book but definitely not the best book ever

It's an interesting book, lots of pictures, some more accurate than another's...
Although its "hardcover" inside its just cheap plain paper... So it's not appropriate for toddlers to handle it by themselves. I was a bit disappointed about it...
Also I found this same book cheaper at a bookstore.Read full review...

Great for young kids.

This book is great for young kids. It teaches new everyday words to them with pictures. Some words, we as adults take for granted kids know, when they really don't..

Good little book

Loved this book as it is a classic. Can't wait for my son to be able to read it and will read to him until then.

Excellent collection
