SuitabookOne thousand things
Anna Kövecses
- Reading
- Dip into one theme at a time: let your child choose what to point to or name, then follow the Little Mouse search if it appeals. Treat the labels as prompts for looking together.
- Themes
- Themed picture-and-word collections: Questions open themed spreads of uncrowded, labelled pictures, ranging from everyday objects and activities to subjects such as nature and the human body. The book presents this mainly as information or explanation.
- Stylised images: Some illustrations simplify their subjects; examples include a five-colour rainbow and a figure whose view is not clearly distinguishable as front or back. The pictures can serve as naming prompts, but the examples show that some visual details are simplified rather than precise.
- Worth knowing
- Some images simplify what they depict; for example, a rainbow is shown with five colours. If exact visual detail matters to your child, you may want to add context as you look.
