Clifford's Word Book (Clifford, the Big Red Dog)

Rating:
Summary: My son loves it.
Review: Clifford is lovable in every book so he is the perfect character to teach children the names of so many different things. Each page of this book describes a different subject filled with bold and clearly illustrated items that fall into that subject. Each item is clearly labeled so that you can read to your child and describe the clearly labeled pictures. Examples of pages include: Emily Elizabeth's room and everything in it, the farm, the classroom, jobs that people do, colors, the circus etc. My 2 & 1/2 year old son loves this book. I read it to him almost every day and he never gets bored with it. Each time I read it with him we can concentrate and expand on different items in each page. My son also enjoys "reading" this book to himself. My only complaint is that some items may seem oudated but I still reccommend buying this book.

Summary: A Fun Word Book
Review: My 3 year old daughter just received this book. She adores it. She especially loves the page about different professions (although I'm surprised to see the woman nurse!) She is so pleased that she can identify so many of the objects, and enjoys learning about new ones too.

Rating:
Summary: High contrast in opinions in the household on this one.
Review: We all love Clifford.

That said, the adults hide this book after a few dozen "reads". The kid loves this book. Tons of objects with labels. But it is real tiresome for the reader. Big boredom. There's only so many ways you can invent plots for this one. It's almost as bad as a sound toy that doesn't have an off switch, volume control, or fun concept.
