"My daughter loves this book. Fabulous for Language Development! "
R. Finch, New York

Reading level: Ages 3-7
This big, colorful "Disney Picture Dictionary" is packed with more than 900 entries. This picture dictionary features Disney characters with every word. Characters from Monsters, Inc., A Bug’s Life, Toy Story, as well as Mickey Mouse, Ariel, Bambi, and Donald Duck, romp through the book, seeming to jump out of the pages in their enthusiasm to encourage little readers-to-be. An alphabet strip runs down the outer edges of each page for reference. The book was developed to help preschoolers and young grade-schoolers develop language, spelling, and vocabulary skills. The youngest kids look at the alphabetized words along with pictures featuring their favorite Disney characters to help grasp the meanings. Older children can learn the definitions accompanying each word and picture, as well as sentences showing usage. The "A" pages feature, for example, "alone," with this definition: "You are alone when you are by yourself." A picture of Lilo (from Lilo and Stitch) lying on a blanket with a record player is captioned: "When Lilo is alone, she likes to listen to her Elvis records."  All other words, like, "cat," "key," "acorn," "sleep," "yesterday," and "zoo" are similarly treated.
