Kids will have hours of fun and learning with Richard Scarry characters like Squigley Worm and Hilda Hippo. With more than 2,500 words, 1,000 pictures in full color, and charming simple stories, this one-of-a-kind treasure is sure to be a favorite with parents and kids alike.
RICHARD SCARRY is one of the world's best-loved children's authors EVER! In his extraordinary career, Scarry illustrated over 150 books, many of which have never been out of print. His books have sold over 100 million copies around the world, and are currently published in over twenty languages. No other illustrator has shown such a lively interest in the words and concepts of early childhood. Richard Scarry was posthumously awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of Illustrators in 2012.
There are so many characters (with ridiculous names), and no semblance of continuity or plot whatsoever, so it's very difficult to read to a young child. I also found the entries quite negative, and the "Bully" character unnecessary.
