I thought I would use this book as a starting place for my kindergartener -- I think he is ready for the parts of speech.

It turns out my third-grader is completely captivated -- that's a great book. When the big kid reads it to the little kid, we have a winner.

I think the illustrations are simply amazing -- they carry the learning to a much deeper level.

Nice that there is an activity at the end of the book for the kids to do.

I also recommend verb, adjective, and noun -- I have all four.
