Product Description:


I know some Big Words.
I'll teach them to you.
Although you are small,
you can use Big Words too.



Big Words aren't scary.
They're big fun to learn.
I was taught once
and now it's your turn.



The eighth hilarious picture book by the #1 New York Times bestselling team of Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell helps little people communicate in a big person's world. With grown-up words like cooperate, respect, patience and considerate, a big, boisterous and zany family celebrates the power of language and discovers that words—big or little—are the bridge that connects us all.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun way of teaching words!
This is the first JLC book I purchased because, to be honest, the illustrations didn't appeal to me on the books and I wasn't sure the stories would appeal to my 3 1/2 year old. I'm glad I read the description on this one and decided to purchase it.

My daughter loves this book. Since the first night we read it before bed, she's had me read it every evening or before nap for a week straight. She has a hard time pronouncing some of the words, but she tries. She's also getting better ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderfully creative
This is a very creative book. Our 7 year old grandaughter is reading and delighted in hearing this book read to her 5 year old sister. It's the kind of book that helps youngsters grow. You can't go wrong with this book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for kids!
Big Words for Little People A fun book with great illustrations. Written in a way that children of various ages are entertained while increasing their vocabulary. Fun for the adult reading it too.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Real Winner
I read this book to my just-turned-three-year-old in Target and I fell in love. It's not so much the words - I don't think there were any "big words" in it that my kid doesn't already know and use, but let me tell you - the ILLUSTRATIONS!! Wow, the illustrations are a hoot! This is the first book I've seen by this duo. I didn't think the text was extraordinary - the rhymes and meter are sometimes clumsy and the "lessons" a bit banal and trite - but the illustrations take up the slack in spades. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Keeping kids growing!
My 6 year old grand-daughter is way ahead of the curve! I wanted a book for her to read that would pique her interest and keep her smiling. This is the one to do it. Learning big words and what they mean keeps her growing mentally and looking for more. Great book!
