Nice, large and colorful. They are just isolated pictures with no link between them so as to invent a story... but in general its a nice book.

4.0 out of 5 stars offers creative opportunities, December 25, 2005

This review is from: Elmo Likes... (Great Big Board Book) (Board book)
I am an English teacher in Korea. I collect picture books with simple patterns. In this book, every sentence begins with "Elmo likes . . ." That renders the book adaptable for lessons on verb conjugations ("Elmo and Big Bird like . . ."), for lessons on other verb tenses ("Elmo liked . . ."), and for personalizing with names of students in the class ("Clara likes . . .").

I give it a 4 because of the faults which Maciel points out.

2.0 out of 5 stars Whoaa-Right over the Heads of Little Ones, June 27, 2005
This review is from: Elmo Likes... (Great Big Board Book) (Board book)
This is the second Elmo book we've bought with a confusing storyline and illustrations. This book is supposed to illustrate what Elmo likes on each page, but for example, on one page it says, "Elmo likes ice cream...except when it melts" and shows Elmo holding an empty ice cream cone. Even my very sharp 16 mo. old was a little confused. Unless your baby has actually watched ice cream melt or eaten off an ice cream cone, this page is absolutely meaningless to them. On another page, it says, "Elmo likes when his friend, Zoe, shares her candy," but the illustration doesn't show her sharing. Instead, the page shows Zoe standing there by herself holding a big round thing (what is supposed to be a sucker). I could go on and on. Elmo books are cute, but I've found that you have to make up your own storyline or totally omit/amend various sentences here or there so that it actually makes sense to children - to the point of being annoying. I don't recommend that you go out of your way to purchase this book - just something to keep your eyes open for at garage sales or resale shops. This book is more appropriate for more mature 2 year-olds and up.
