I see why I'm the first reviewer. The discription says everything and plainly. But I'd like to add that if I were just learning to read/speak english, this would be my first purchase. This book was rated for 9-12 year old readers; well I bought it for my 5yr old grandson, but think that my 2yr old will enjoy it also.

Revised classic from yester-year.

Best suited for pre-kindergarten

child.

Sturdy hardcover

cute illustrations

My 28-month-old loves Curious George, and he now loves this dictionary. He enjoys pointing to pictures and asking "What's George doing now?" Within a few days of receiving the book, we had covered every page.

The words in this book are pretty basic, and the visuals match the words very well. For young kids who love George, it's wonderful.

We have the hardcover version of the dictionary, which my 3 1/2 year old loves. We got a tablet computer and were travelling so I thought it would be great to have a Kindle version to take with us. What a big mistake. It is so poorly formatted - there is unnecessary text everywhere (ASCII versions of the text in the pictures) and on many pages, it takes up so much room that the image of the pictures are shrunk to half the size of the Kindle page. It's not useless, but it's pretty close, and it not the same beautiful book as the hardcover. Learn from my mistake and stick with the paper version.

An excellent book for my 4 year old boy who is learning to sight read. Each word has a picture and many are used in a sentence. This is a great format for this "first" dictionary. The fact that it features the much-loved "George" is just a bonus.

I've been searching everywhere for a good picture dictionary for my almost 2 year old. He loves books and he loves George. Each word has a nicely illustrated pic and some have sentences that use the word. A great buy!

I bought this book for a baby gift. I searched for quite a while to get one that I wanted. The only regret is that it took such a long time to get here.
