This is helping our child understand when we and other adults use idioms while it expands her vocabulary. My 5 year old (who reads on a 3rd grade level) loves it and reads it as a joke book while leaning things far ahead of her time. Terban includes the origin of the idiom and the cartoon picture drives home the message. This is a reference just a necessary as a dictionary.
This book is written on a child's level. It is very short in length and the book has stains on it from spills (I can only assume). I expected more and received much less. SIMILAR ITEMS: |
