Customer Reviews

One of my daughter's favorites

The colors and pictures of Corduroy are beautiful in this book. My daughter loves it! Other than Dr. Seuss books, this is one that she really loves and always wants to read.

How I learned to count with Corduroy

This book is a fun way to teach young children how to count. The pictures are very cute and colorful to hold ones interest. And the large print is a lot easier to read. The board cover is a very good idea also since children are often messy.

Excellent for the very young ones

This is a good book to be reading to the really young ones (under 3 years old). It is very colorful and cute. The children really enjoy looking at the book and counting along. I bought it a little bit too late for my son (though he loved the other Corduroy books) but I co-own a day-care and the other children just love this book. And since it is a board-book, it can withstand the abuse young children tend do dish out to books.A word of advice, don't buy this book used. The proceeds from the sale of this book go to help cancer children.

Corduroy the Bear

I think this book is a great book to start with. It is a good way of learning to count and how to read. I also think that who ever reads this book they will enjoy it very much because of the bear looks very friendly and nice.

My son's favorite book!

I loved Corduroy as a kid, so I figured my son would like him as well. This book is my son's absolute favorite. At 10-months old, he crawls to his bookshelf, grabs this book, and insists I read it to him again, and again, and again. He especially likes pointing out Corduroy, and is catching on to the counting. I will ask him to point out the books, or the milk, bread or honey, or the rag doll, and he can actually do it! The colors of the book really catch his eye. What a nice way to introduce reading to my young one. I will be buying additional Corduroy board books!
