I have witnessed a teacher using this book for her classroom to teach new vocabulary in English Language Development. It is a wonderful book because it reaches the class with its multicultural photographs. There are also a large variety of types of tools represented. Both the boys and the girls in the class loved the book because they can identify the tools they use everyday and some new tools they would love to try out. I have not seen any other book like this one addressing the important uses of tools.
I was disappointed since this was all pictures than the last page had a brief sentence about what took and country.I really thought my great nephews, 4 and 5, would love this book until I opened it. It teaches you nothing.
Great book.Shows pictures of tools kids may not know being used all around the world. They don't name the tool or what each tool does on each page but it does give you that information in the packed index in the back.
