Startup! First 100 Words by Roger Priddy

Science tells us that babies begin to remember and sock away images in their memories from their first day, with Mom or the caretaker being one of the first to become familiar--baby's first chance to build a categories of remembrances.

In the new board book edition of his First 100 Words (St. Martin's Press, 2016) Roger Priddy offers twelve categories of things that babies encounter in their first year--Colors, Things That Go, Bathtime, Bedtime, Mealtime, Food, Myself, Outside, Clothes, Toys, Pets, and Farm Animals. In this substantial board book, colored and carefully edited photos of each category share a double- page spread. For example, the two-page spread on Food has both broccoli and bananas, while Clothes offers items from socks to sweatshirts. Pets includes pups and parrots, and Bathtime features both rubber ducky and bathtub.

Things that Go shows both tractors and trains, and Myself catches babies crawling and crying, and all the other things little ones do. This one also deserves some time beyond babyhood on the preschool shelf, because, with each item labeled in bold lower-case letters, this book also functions as a photo glossary of common words that can be recycled for emergent and beginning readers. Inexpensive and very sturdy, this one is a real bargain for babies and baby's first teachers.

  • This book makes a wonderful choice for kids just starting to read. Children will like these books because they are engaging and fun to look at, making them useful for growing their vocabulary. What I like best is how toddlers can learn new words while having fun.

    I recently read a work by a Brazilian football author on sports psychology, illustrating how important it is to use both your mind and body in sports.

As someone who recently worked on an International healthy cookbook, I really appreciate how important it is to present ideas clearly and visually—especially when trying to inspire learning, whether it's in the kitchen or in early childhood development. Great post, and thanks for spotlighting a resource that makes learning exciting from the very beginning!

  • No wonder a lot of writers and teachers prefer to pay ebook writers when developing material of this type. Professional writers understand how to make learning enjoyable particularly in the case of young readers. When considering putting out a children book, hire ebook writers can definitely make your idea truly come to life in a manner that is interesting and suitable to the kids!
