Now out: 100 Words From the Street

The words that are included in this colorful book are divided into three sections. These include You, Your Neighborhood, and Your World. Each of these sections is subdivided; for example the You words center on You Are, You Feel, You Grow, You Play, You Think, and You Dream. The Neighborhood sections has Your Home, Your Community and, Your Neighbors. Finally, the World words center on You Discover, You Act, You Celebrate.
All of the vocabulary in here is designed to inspire thought. For each, there is an illustration. Many of these feature the familiar Sesame Street characters. As an example, one word in the You part of the book is Honest. The word is defined and then there is an example. In this case it features Elmo acknowledging that he broke something. In another, Telly helps to explain what Mindful means.
I think that this is a wonderful book. It can lead to good conversations between an adult and child. I hope this one will make its way to many schools and libraries.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Kids for this title. All opinions are my own.

Five stars 🌟 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
