Jack and Annie's Story Word Book [With Poster]

Rebecca Elgar. Kingfisher, $12.95 (40pp) ISBN 978-0-7534-5560-9

Colorful, labeled illustrations teach vocabulary and concepts in Jack and Annie's Story Word Book by Rebecca Elgar. The action alternates between the animal friends as they get dressed, eat breakfast and head to nursery school; engaging text invites participation (""Now let's play dress-up. Is there a hat for everyone?""). Suggested games extend the reading experience. A pull-out poster spotlights the alphabet, numbers and colors.
