Customer Reviews

Excellent book- Taught my son all his numbers at age of 2!

I cannot say enough about how wonderful this book has been for us. I am very disappointed it is out of print. My son wanted to read (and read and read and read) this book every day from the day he received it on his 2nd birthday and every day after that. Within a month, he knew how to recognize every number. He could barely talk... but he knew how to find the number "2" if you asked! He devoured this book from cover to cover... like it was new every time he opened it. You can't imagine the excitement he would display when he would put it in my hands to read with him. He also perfected his knowledge of color, shapes and counting. Not to mention he learned all about seasons and holidays. I truly believe this book (being read with mommy and daddy to help) taught him all this knowledge. He is now a preschooler and has a huge advantage over his classmates who are just learning some of these things. Enthusiasm Plus for "Learn wiht Thomas!" Get it before it disappears completely. I am so sad it's not being printed any longer.

My boys love this book although I am not as excited over it!

I really believe in following your child's lead in deciding what books to get them and to read, to a large extent. This book is an example of one that my boys really, really like, although to me it's a bit dull and stilted. They love the format, which focuses on one subject with 10 examples for each 2 page spread. The setup is orderly and not overly busy, and I think this really lets them focus. And of course, for Thomas and friends fan, any book with lots of Thomas action is a good book!
