The world''s most curious monkey investigates new words in this
lively picture dictionary for young children. Curious George''s
Dictionary is an engaging picture dictionary specially designed for
children from preschool through first grade. Both entertaining and
educationally sound, it features charming illustrations and
reflects recent research in early childhood literacy, setting it
apart from other picture dictionaries. The main part of the
dictionary is an A-Z section containing approximately six hundred
words, six words to a page. Each word is illustrated with a
full-color drawing, most of which have been created for this book
by the popular illustrator Mary O''Keefe Young. More than half the
illustrations include a sample sentence that puts the word in a
familiar context. A four-page illustrated story at the front of the
book shows George learning how to look up words in his dictionary,
drawing children in while introducing them to dictionary skills. At
the end of the book, seven one- to two-page illustrations present
groups of words related by simple themes such as colors, shapes,
and numbers. Developed in collaboration with educational
consultants, the word list includes not only concrete objects but
many more abstract concepts, like discover and enough, than do
other picture dictionaries. Such words are essential for vocabulary
development, and Curious George''s antics bring them alive, making
them easy and fun for children to learn.
