great book!
My 4 yr old loves this book. Her teacher has even commented on the big words she uses. I think she likes people reacting to the use of her new words. I love that shes asking questions about the meanings of the words shes learning and putting them into action. We look forward to seeing more books like this from Mrs Curtis.

BIG recommendation
My 3.5 year old and I LOVE this book! She wasn't impressed at first but once we started reading it she was clearly interested. This is our second book by Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell...love them!

Big Words for Little People
I have enjoyed the Jamie Lee Curtis books that I have read to and/or purchased for my grandson (who is five years old). This is a fun book, as well as an educational one. I highly recommend it for "Little People."

Cute
I bought this book for my niece, I love it. She likes knowing the big words and the pictures are pretty neat.

another poorly written celebrity authored book
My daughter and i read a lot of books and this is one of the worst ever. The cadence is incorrect, there are grammatical mistakes, and the values in this book are not correct. I guess I sort of expect this sort of sub par publishing from celebrity authors, who use their celebrity status rather than writing talent to push their books. I can't believe that any publisher would pick this book up. But, again, i'm not Jamie Lee Curtis. :)
