Book Review: "first words"


As you can see, things are backed up a bit at the Peabody Book Review Company... Emmie's been doing the best she can, but it takes a while to get her to give us her thoughts. This week we take a look at "first words", a gripping tale of nouns and, well, more nouns...







Rating:(4 out of 5 rattles)


Emmie's Review:

Although I couldn't understand the words underneath the pictures, I did enjoy the sharp contrast the letters made against the colored backgrounds. I also enjoyed the bright pictures, particularly the banana and the airplane! I've been told that this book is marketed to the hip 1-2 year old crowd, and I'm sure they'd enjoy it as well. I thought the corners of the book were pretty tasty, and I found kicking the book to be quite entertaining as well. All in all a pretty quick read, but my short attention span and lack of long-term memory kept me coming back!



(ed. note - Emmie enjoyed the airplane even more than the hot pink teddy bear on the opposite page; one wonders if this will have any bearing on Emmie's future career path...)

She reminds me of Mary but with darker hair and a longer attention span. Good Reading!
