My Book of First 1000 Words

One thousand everyday words are arranged by theme here, each attached to a photograph of the real thing rather than a cartoon of it. Children match what they see around them to the word that names it. Topics run across numbers, fruits, vegetables, transport, opposites and other groupings that give a child a whole category at once instead of scattered items. The picture-led layout invites pointing, naming and questions, which is where early vocabulary actually gets built. Beyond word recognition, the book gives practice in observation and supplies the basic English a young learner needs for simple conversation at home or in a nursery classroom. What makes it work: • One thousand words grouped into familiar everyday themes • Photographs taken from real surroundings rather than drawings • Sections covering numbers, opposites, food and transport • A format that encourages naming, pointing and back-and-forth talk For toddlers and preschoolers building first vocabulary, and for parents supporting early English at home. Available in English at Boipoka.
