My first thought about this board book is that my once little boys would have loved this. Carpentry, Electrical, Plumbing, Masonry, Iron and Steelwork, Roadways and Foundations, Cranes and Towers, Heavy Equipment, Toolboxes, Materials, Design, and Safety are the topics. Each topic has vocabulary words with colorful pictures to help little learners learn all about the world of construction. ~Judy

My First 100 Words books are a brilliant creation to feed new vocabulary in given interest areas to toddlers and preschoolers at the time in their development when they soak up information. The books are nice board books, with slightly padded covers and rounded edges. The vocabulary words are interestingly on the more challenging side for the age group, but what better time to get things started? With the different genres covered there is a wide variety of vocabulary words available. ~Judy
