Great for little kids-material's getting outdated

I found this book in my grandmother's house and handed it down to my little cousin. It might teach youngsters some new words, however readers should realize that this book was written in 1972 and some of the details are out of date, such as records, typewriters, rotary dial phones and other outdated technology and illustrations. This might have been why the book went out of print-because some of the details are so outdated that the youngsters of today's world probably wouldn't be able to understand what any of that stuff is.

I think that this book was one of the best books I had read when I was a little child. Now that I have to young children, I just found this book and I wanted to share it with my kids. This book thought me so much about the English language considering I came to America at a very young age. But I am sad that this book is out of print, I wanted to get a new copy for my kids. I hope that by this comment, the publisher will publish this book again. I showed this book to my son and he was very exited to start learning the vocabulary. I will try to find this book, but hope that other parents will want to order this book too.
