This sticker book is outstanding. It is my 2-year-old's favorite book. While I have to help her turn pages at this age, I am amazed at her ability to figure out where the stickers go and place them. Her hand-eye coordination has improved along with her vocabulary. I believe children of all ages would enjoy this book. Very young children do need assistance, but it is a fun way of teaching them.

Hundreds and hundreds of clear photographic stickers that just cry out to be turned into beginning reader stories. There are activity pages front and back you could use, but I think the best way to devour this fantastic book is to have kids write sentences and stories using the stickers like rebus pictures. A sure-fire creative activity starter. Recommended for ages four to eight.

My two year old loves this sticker book so much. I have bought almost every book like it. Its great!

My 3 year old daughters absolutely LOVE this book. They aren't old enough to "read" the numbers that correspond with the pictures, so they just randomly pull them off the pages and stick them wherever. They come off easily, more than once! Then, when I get time to sit with them, we put them in the right places. It's perfect. The pictures are darling. I got this one again this morning- I believe it's now the 6th one we've had, and it's always as exciting to start over! If you have kids, get it!!!!

So that photo of the cover that you see, that's what every page in the book looks like. Each page is either a page full of stickers or a page of silhouettes that match the stickers, organized by categories such as Fruits, Toys, Letters, Numbers, Around the House (objects), Vehicles, etc. Each sticker has a number, for which you must search for its corresponding silhouette to place the sticker in a relevant section. The sticker pages, as opposed to the silhouette pages, are slightly scrambled so its not completely mindless, transferring the stickers from the sticker pages to the silhouettes.

As advertised, there are over 500 stickers, so this book will go the distance with your youngster. Now the whole searching for a sticker's silhouette may sound kind of boring, and in fact it is quite boring if you are past a certain age. For instance, my eight year old son, who displays an occasional interest in sticker books, can't stand it, its far too methodical, there is no freedom to creatively place the stickers wherever you want in some kind of scenery. However, my 2 year old daughter loves it and really enjoys and feels pround about her ability to search a page of 20 silhouettes and match the sticker, and can do it endlessly. However, she can't do it alone, and left to her own devices, will fail to complete the book as it is intended to be, and just pull off a bunch of stickers and put them on the dog or the wall or eat them. However, with help from an adult or an older interested sibling, she becomes totally absorbed in the procedure and is quite proud of her ability to find the right spots. Every day, its, "Daddy, where's my sticker book?" "Daddy, can I have my sticker book?" "Daddy, will you help me with my sticker book?"

Furthermore, it has an fantastic educational value, as far as developing whatever it is in the brain the helps her match the varied comlex silhouettes with the stickers; and whatever it is in the brain that is associated with the process of gently peeling off stickers and matching them in the correct orientation to match the silhouettes (and there are many silhouettes that are somewhat like puzzles (usually one or more per page), where several stickers are required to complete the picture.) There are also dedicated number, letter, time of day, color, and shape sections.

In short a fantastic value, a fun, rewarding, long lasting and educational experience great for toddlers to preschoolers but less interesting to the older kids who may like other kinds of sticker books. Wow, am I sick of the word 'sticker' now after writing this review.

I purchased this sticker book for a cross country flight for my 22 month old. She absolutely loved it. I lasted us from CA to NC and back and for a few weeks afters. She was disappointed when we finished all of the stickers and wanted more. The pictures are great and teaches basic first words. Very colorful bright stickers. By the time she had completed the book, her finger dexterity had greatly improved by placing the stickers in the correct locations. Highly recommended!

This is a huge sticker book. You will need to help toddlers with matching the stickers to the correct page. I wish the sticker pages were easily removable from the book (perforated pages). This activity book may actually be better suited for older children who can match the numbers and words to the picture rather than toddlers. I recommend the Kumon sticker books for younger toddlers. - Noga Rosenthal

this the very best sticker book, because each double faced page is a single category. like : food , clothes, flowers, fruit, vegetables, toys, kitchen.
so children learn to read & recognize names of things in this world while playing.
this would be a most excellent gift for anyone trying to learn english.

My grand daughter is three years old and needed help to complete this long sticker book. However, that was the fun part. The pictures in this book were vibrant and bright. The quality of the items used throughout the book were inviting and educationally sound. Word choices were meaningful and helpful for young children. I highly recommend this book for children who are at least three.

I wasn't sure if my just turned 2-year old would destroy this or let us do it with her the right way, but either way she loves it. She lets us sit with her and help her find the right spots for each sticker, and sometimes she just wants to do it herself. The great part is that we can move the stickers around later if she wants us to. Highly recommend!
