A pile of words, however, can be so much more because a pile of words can make a story!

However, the allothesaurus might not be the true friend Stegothesaurus dreamed of!

The Weighty Word Book by Paul Levitt
A collection of 26 short stories, one for each letter of the alphabet, this book uses clever plots with “punch-line” endings to make difficult words understandable, pronounceable, and memorable for kids as young as 9 or 10. For example, a circus manager searching for new talent finds a skillful ice-skating hippo named Cora. He declares, “Boy, can that Cora skate!” (the word coruscate means “brilliant or showy in technique or style”). Teachers and parents will appreciate the use of puns, mnemonics, and tips for pronunciation. The sequel Weighty Words, Too delivers more of the same!

The Russian text is too small
Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2018
I like the overall quality of this book, and the pictures are very detailed. But the font used for the Russian text is too small. Also, a sans serif font would have been better; the parts of some letters, especially the л, are too faint to be seen clearly.

This is a very detailed coloring book and I am not sure how useful it would be for kids. There is no pronunciation guide but that can easily be looked up. I am not sure how effective this would be as a tool for teaching Russian, however as a little theme related art project it is fine.

Look, the Cyrillic alphabet isn’t that hard to learn. I just watched a video on YouTube several times and learned it in a couple of days. You can also just go on google translate and see where the accent of each word is. I like that this coloring book doesn’t have pronounciation suggestions using the Roman alphabet, because those are a crutch if you really want to learn Russian.
What I have done with my daughter is practice each word, and then when we have the word down we color it in. We are also using other resources to learn other parts of speech (this book just has nouns) and grammar, including the declensions of the nouns we learn in this book. (You have to do that unless you just want to know how to point stuff and say the names).
This book is such a fun component of learning Russian. Highly recommend.

It’s a nice coloring book with lots of useful Russian vocabulary. Unfortunately it doesn’t have English translations. At my level and doing self-study I have to use a Russian-English Dictionary. As an extra for a Russian language class taught by an instructor it would be a good choice.
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2018
This is such an excellent idea but the execution of it could be better. I didn’t want to leave a three star review. I feel bad for doing it but I feel I need to be honest. What would make this SO MUCH better is if the author and illustrator didn’t cram so much into each page. I realize that lowers the cost and this is a niche product and I will guess that’s the reason for this. I almost want to compete with you and do an illustrated book like this as well, only, I’d put far few items per page and I would add some depth to it. Like open doors and closed doors, and so on. Sometimes it is hard to read the black and white nature of it. I hope you guys do this again, and better. I’d be your first customer. I do not regret buying it all, but I think it could be much better at the same time.

I speak Russian and bought this for my 4 year old son. I should have paid better attention to the description but I bought it quickly based on the price and overall reviews. I do not think this is appropriate for preschool. The pictures are very detailed with a lot of pictures and a preschooler could never color that. Also, you need someone who can speak Russian to explain what the words mean. I don’t really know who the target audience would be. I think a 7 year old girl might like it to color and then have someone practice the vocabulary, but I don’t know many boys who would enjoy coloring it. Also, as kids get older you need a better book to have at least some verbs and expressions besides vocabulary. I see this more as a coloring book with some Russian vocab as a bonus.
I am thinking of coloring it in myself, and/or copying the sheets and using them to color a little at a time, focusing on a few words at a time.

Here’s another kids book that adults could use. Compared to the book «First Thousand Words», it’s not as attractive, but I bought it for fun. It has 15 2-page black and white drawings of themed scenes. My husband said «Oh! I see you have a coloring book!». I guess one could color the pictures…what the heck.
Each theme is labeled, and items in the scenes are labeled. Unlike «1,000 Words», it does NOT have pronunciations (that’s dumb..there isn’t even a phonetic guide), but like the «1,000» it does have a translation glossary in the back.
I liked it as a diversion from text-only Russian lessons.

Exactly what I expected. I am excited to get started on more vocabulary. I saw some people mention the lack of stress symbols being present to help pronounce the words. I see this as opportunity for you to look it up in dictionary or online and place the stress symbols appropriately yourself to reinforce the material to an even greater degree! Do not get if you cant pronounce the alphabet as this is just words over pictures with translations in the back. Very simple and exactly what i was looking for.

Great fun for young Russian learners
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 21, 2012
This 32-page book provides detailed black-and-white drawings of many common scenarios found both inside and outside the home. The pictures lend themselves extremely well to be coloured in, which in turn should promote word association and recall. At the back of the book, there is a full Russian alphabetical list and English translation of all words contained within it. However, as there is no pronunciation guide, this book is best used by parents familiar with the Cyrillic script and how to read it.

Good effort by the authors, a nice piece of work for children.
Wordplay makes kids love language, it inspires writing and helps kids learn new vocabulary. Celebrate words and wordplay with children by reading these playful picture books.
As children develop language, wordplay develops naturally and early. Think of ways little children play with language — it might be rhymes or silly languages, or trying to figure out words based on background knowledge. This is why young children get tenses and plurals wrong — they’re usually applying what they know, generalizing. Or just experimenting. That’s how language develops! And, when there are conversations with other speakers who are more advanced, their knowledge continues to increase. (Vygotsky’s Zones of Proximal Development!)
Just last week I couldn’t figure out the plural of caboose. I mean, is it cabooi like cactus is cacti or cabooses like mooses? Kids do this all the time, and it’s so important to language development!
But, authors use made-up words all the time! When you’re reading, see if you can find the author’s made-up words and guess why the authors invented those words.
Then, invent new words by combining words together. I still can’t believe my idea of a snoff hasn’t caught on! A snoff is a sneeze + cough because a cougeeze doesn’t sounds as funny so hence, we need snoff. Right?
Or try combining two animals to create a new one. So a zebra + a lamb = a zamb? Then, illustrate it.
Maybe you’ve found there’s no word for something you want to name so why not invent the word? Remembers, authors do it all the time!
But first, develop a child’s love for words and wordplay with these fantastic picture books.
My Pet Feet by Josh Funk, illustrated by Billy Yong
Darling and creative, this playful wordplay adventure hits all the right letters, and you’ll laugh your way through it. A little girl wakes up to a world without the letter R — and sees that her FERRET Doodles has turned into FEET! How can she save him? As she races around town, she discovers all the problems without the letter R — bread becomes bead, friend becomes fiend, crows become cows. Doodles leads the girl towards a pirate ship where they discover all the stolen all the Rs. She returns the Rs to Doodles and repairs the town. But just as she’s about to sleep, she realizes something else is missing…
P is for Pterodactyl: The Worst Alphabet Book Ever by Raj Haldar and Chris Carpenter, illustrated by Maria Beddia
You will LOVE this book — a top choice on this list!! Get your kids, sit by the fire, and prepare to laugh your way through the wackiest alphabet book you’ll ever read. Because in this book, “A is for Aisle” and “H is for Heir“. Below each letter and illustration is a sentence describing each word such as, “M is for Mnemonic. // But now Mr. M. can’t remember why.” Isn’t this a delightful, hilarious treat for word enthusiasts of all ages?
Hornswoggled! by Josh Crute, illustrated by Jenn Harney
Wordsmiths are going to love this hilarious story about a thief stealing from the forest animals! The skunk’s thinking cap is gone and replaced with pie. (They’ve been skunked!) The rooster’s speech is missing–what poppycock! All the animals have been hornswoggled! Can they find the thief? Yes! And as they search, these vocabulary words (that are explained in little note cards in the illustrations) will stick with readers because they’re embedded in a delightfully silly and memorable story!
Theo Thesaurus The Dinosaur Who Loved by Big Words by Shelli R. Johannes, illustrated by Mike Moran
You don’t have to be a word-loving dinosaur to love this darling word-loving dinosaur’s story about trying to fit in. Theo eagerly shares his favorite words with his classmates, who seem more confused than accepting. Theo feels lonely and misunderstood. Especially when it seems like no one is coming to his birthday party. When they do, his new friends show Theo that they accept who he is.
Stegothesaurus by Bridget Heos, illustrated by T.L. McBeth
This stegothesaurus was different from his stegosaurus brothers– he knows a lot of words and uses them to describe the world. When he meets an allosaurus who was an allothesaurus, at first it seems like they are meant to be friends. Until the Allothesaurus reveals how she learned so many words. YIKES! I’m so impressed with this clever story about a word-loving dino that has the cutest illustrations EVER!
Flibbertigibbety Words: Young Shakespeare Chases Inspiration by Donna Guthrie, illustrated by Asa Gilland
Words fly into William’s window one day, but when he tries to catch them, the words run away. William chases the words throughout London, passing things like the king’s carriage and three women stirring a boiling pot, with phrases from Shakespeare’s plays. Luckily, a generous peddler helps William catch his words with a pen and paper. Now he asks the words to stay with him, and they do, telling of “leaky ships and far-off lands, kings and witches, roses and love letters.“ It’s a playful, fun introduction to Shakespeare and a love of language.
Lexie’s a word wrangler, a cowgirl who mixes up fresh words each morning like corn and bread to make cornbread or turn an annoying pest into good pets. But someone is stealing letters and words from her ranch. Instead of a rainbow, she only sees a bow. Will she catch the sneaky word rustler? A thoroughly delightful adventure!
Calvin Gets the Last Word by Margo Sorenson, illustrated by Mike Deas
The DICTIONARY (!) narrator is very proud of Calvin, a boy who loves words. In this story, Calvin is looking for the right word to describe his older brother. From the breakfast table to the classroom and back home again, Calvin encounters new words like subterfuge, mayhem, and revenge but none adequately works for his brother. It’s quite a full day, and the dictionary narrator is exhausted by the time Calvin goes to bed — until Calvin gets inspired by PRANK and the bond of FAMILY. A sweet sibling and word-lovers story.
After some words escape from the Dictionary, it’s a romp through grammar and wordplay. Homophones, palindromes, rhyming words, anagrams, and more strut their stuff through the book’s pages until they’re called back inside the dictionary.
What a Wonderful Word: A Collection of Untranslatable Words From Around the World by Nicola Edwards, illustrated by Luisa Uribe
Budding wordsmiths will love reading these unique words that don’t translate into other languages. Words like the Icelandic “gluggavedur” which means “window weather”, “weather that looks beautiful while you’re inside, but is much to cold when you step outside.” I especially love the Japanese word “nakama” which means “friends who are like family”. Each word is defined and illustrated with text that explains further context and meaning.
Get inspired by this book about a boy named Jerome who loves words so much that he collects them! As he collects, Jerome notices the beauty of pairing words unexpectedly. Then, he realizes that he must share the words with the whole world. Use this beautiful book to inspire your own word collections. Added to: Mentor Texts for Word Choice
The Book Tree by Paul Czajak, illustrated by Rashin Kheiriyeh
You’ll love this allegory that shows the power of words as well as the power of one person’s actions. Arlo loves books — he starts a book by just breathing it in. “Beginnings were always the best part. // They smelled as if anything were possible.” Unfortunately, the Mayor orders the town’s books destroyed. As time goes on, Arlo notices some unexpected consequences of no books. Like without storytime there is no nap time. Without cookbooks, the restaurants serve only cereal. Without plays, the actors have nothing to act out in the theater. But even with his sadness, Arlo realizes that he can write his own words into stories. His stories help a single buried page of words to grow into a tree that blooms books. The people began enjoying books again and the town flourishes.
It’s hilarious and impressive to read a mystery adventure written in alliterative sentences. Betty has enlisted the help of the police to solve the crime of who burgled her bakery. And you’ll never believe who did it!! Sure to be a new read-aloud favorite, especially for teachers to use in writing workshop.
The Keeper of Wild Words by Brooke Smith, illustrated by Madeline Kloepper
Brook’s friend, Mimi, is a writer who asks Brook to help her keep the words from disappearing. The two wander into the world where the wild words are waiting, ready to see and notice everything around them. As they walk through nature, they notice silver minnows swimming, bushels of sweet, fresh, tangy mint, and a green-velvet head, bright-yellow beak Drake lifting off. Special words are featured in colorful, bigger sized type, so kids notice the many rich nature words in the story.
You don’t have to be a dog or wordplay lover to enjoy this fun book that gives you all lots of dog-ish expressions with photos of the cutest dogs EVER. “Working like a dog. / Raining Cats and Dogs. / Dog and Pony Show.” Each page is framable because these photographs are stunning! Added to Favorite Dog Books for Kids.
In this simple graphic novel picture book, a teacher helps her students learn about compound words. The kids excitedly think of lots of compound words even at home.
The Longest Letsgoboy by Derick Wilder, illustrated by Catria Chien
Heartbreaking and beautiful with transcendent illustrations, this is a beautiful book for anyone who has a dog or who has lost a dog. An old dog walks with his Little one last time through nature, speaking to us in a playful dog-speak style. “She gives me a happyface. I wigglewag…We reach a bend in the gurgleburble, where hornheads and stripetails often visit, and sipslurp cool sweetness.” Later, when Little sleeps, the dog slowsteps to the softgreen, circles twice, and then hears his last letsgoboy. He closes his eyes and is lifted to a place where he’s young again. There, he watches Little as she grieves and eventually welcomes a new “awwwpuppy”.
E-mergency by Tom Lichtenheld, illustrated by Ezra Fields-Meyer
This punny wordplay picture book is hilarious! When E takes a tumble down the stairs, in order for E to heal, everyone must stop using the letter E in all their words. O (who is so well-rounded) takes her place making this book hilarious and quite challenging to read out loud! AftOr all, wO usO thO lOttOr a lot! But, E doesn’t heal. Maybe someone still using the letter E? Like THE NARRATOR!?
Take Away the A by Michael Escoffier, illustrated by Kris Di Giacomo
What happens when you remove the letter A? Well, beast becomes best. How about the letter D? Dice becomes ice. Super funny wordplay with an unexpected plot!
When a head cold results in a hilarious and embarrassing misunderstanding of words, readers experience the fun of language, especially synonyms.
The Boy Who Loved Words by Roni Schotter, illustrated by Giselle Potter
This beautiful picture book swells, sparkles, and percolates with Selig’s (also called Wordsworth’s) passion for words. “You too may find yourself lucky if, one day, while you are thinking or writing or simply speaking, the perfect word just seems to come to you. If so, you’ll know that Selig is near.”
Alphabetter by Linda Ragsdale, illustrated by Martina Hogan
You’ll love this playful alphabet picture book full of positive, fun invented words that are combinations of other words. What will you find on the C page? How about choolo (choose + love) and charvelous (charming + marvelous). Sure to inspire many playful inventions of your own as well as new additions to your everyday vocabulary.
This biographical story is an important piece of American history that kids should know — the history of the Webster dictionary. The narrative includes “edits” from Noah Webster himself which make this lively story even more interesting. The illustrations are perfect — in style and color. Bravo for organizing words, Mr. Webster!
Ann and Nan are Anagrams: A Mixed-Up Word Dilemma by Mark Shulman & Adam McCauley
Anagrams are words that when mixed up spell different words or phrases using all the letters. The authors make it easy to tell which are anagrams by putting the anagrams in similar fonts and telling the story of a mixed-up word world. Don’t you think this would be a fantastic book for an elementary classroom?
“Bring me to your AUNT. She’s A NUT.”
“Poor Grandma! What a VILE, EVIL way to LIVE.”
The Dictionary of Difficult Words by Jane Solomon, illustrated by Louise Lockhart
Want a mesmerizing wordplay book that is even better than a word-a-day calendar? This oversized dictionary contains the coolest selection of 400 words that kids will love to learn beginning with abecedarian (someone who is learning the alphabet) continuing to Zeppelin. Each letter gives readers about 15 new words to learn. This includes the word, pronunciation, part of speech, and definition. You’ll find haberdashery, ichthyologist, luddite and mugwump, mulligrubs, mumpsimus, and mishpocha. Read one of these words (or more) every day. Then try to use it at least a few times in a sentence. It won’t be too onerous, and you won’t be ramfeezled; in fact, learning new words might just be a salubrious experience because you’ll soon become a sesquipedalian.
You Love Ewe by Cece Bell
If you love words, wordplay, and silliness, this will be your new favorite picture book! An enthusiastic and loveable but oblivious donkey misunderstands what Yam is telling him about Ewe and thing Yam is talking about him. (You, in this case.) Eventually, Yam explains about homonyms, but those make Donkey mixed up, too. “Hummanums? I thought they was called critters!” I LOVE this book!

Answers My notes
Remember
On speaking test day:
I should listen carefully to the examiner.
If I dont hear, I can say Excuse me, please can you repeat
that?Use phrases and sentences to ask questions, like What are the
children studying?Also use phrases and sentences to talk about pictures and answer
questions, like Hes playing the drums very loudly or I play outside
with my family.38 39
