My 16 month old daughter loves this book! It was given to her as a gift for her first birthday. At first, I thought she was too young for it and planned to put it away for her until she was bit older. But, she began to point at it enthusiastically so I let her look at it. That was 4 months ago, and not a day has gone by that she hasn't pulled it out to look at all the beautiful pictures. She enjoys turning the pages and pointing at the different illustrations. We started by simply labeling the words that she pointed to. Over time, she has learned to recognize dozens of words independently and now actually says them. Because she is so young, and is used to handling board books, many pages have ripped. I have had to tape up most of the pages!!! She loves this book so much, I am planning to buy another one to keep in pristine condition for her when she get older!

This book will be instantly appealing to most kids. The pictures are really precious and brightly colored. They did a great job including art from almost all of the Disney animated movies, including the newer Pixar movies to the classics. Because of this I think adults will enjoy this book as well. Each section begins with the letter (both upper and lower case) and then has several pages of pictures with words that begin with that letter. With each word there is a picture, a defintion and then a sentence using the word. Some of the pictures and sentences are really creative! I like that the words include words other than nouns. There are verbs and adjectives as well. You could start this book with your child as early as you like (I don't think it's ever too early to start reading with your child) although the book is rather large and the pages could be easily torn by younger readers. And I think this is a book that a child could enjoy for a very long time.

I originally saw this book at my pediatrician's office and fell in love with it because it was so colorful and wonderfully written. Once I got home I got online and found it on Amazon and to my delight it was a much better price than what was on the book itself. I immediately ordered one for my 5 year old son's birthday and 4 more for all his friends with up coming birthdays since it was free shipping. This book makes the kids questions so much easier to explain because it gives simple definitions and also uses the word in a sentence. I can't say enough about the pictures, they are fantastic!! Since giving them as gifts I've had several people ask where I got this book because they want to buy them as gifts for other friends. Just a great book all around!

My son was 3 when we first got this book and it's been an instant hit with him. He is 5 now and knows more than 90% of the words (and spellings) in this book. The pictures are great and really appeal to the kids! One of the best buys that we made; you won't go wrong buying this book.

Bought this book thinking that it would be just another neat Disney collection. However, my daughter has used it to learn so much, in a fun familiar way for her. Great investment!

This is a great book for your preschooler. I found the book much cheaper [...] with very reasonable shipping.

This is an excellent book. The pictures are of Disney characters and they are all very nice. A Fine Book.

This book provides an excellent and fun way to learn the alphabet. There are so many differnt pictures that my child never gets bored with the book.
