Illustrated throughout by Stephen Cartwright, each book is packed with busy, colourful scenes for children to explore, name and talk about. Perfect for early vocabulary building at home or in the classroom, this set is a wonderful introduction to both everyday English words and first steps in learning French, ideal for curious young readers and language learners alike. About the Books First Thousand Words in English is a true classic of children's publishing, revised and updated for Usborne's 40th anniversary. It features a thousand everyday objects hidden within lively, detailed scenes — from the kitchen to the park — giving children the chance to spot, name and learn new words at their own pace. This is the original "find-the-duck" book, the title that introduced Stephen Cartwright's now-iconic Little Yellow Duck, hidden somewhere on every page for children to search for. First Thousand Words in French takes the same trusted format and applies it to language learning, helping children build a first working French vocabulary through play rather than rote memorisation. Words are grouped by everyday themes such as "At Home", "Actions", "Food" and "Colours", making it easy for children to connect vocabulary to familiar situations. As with the English edition, a Little Yellow Duck appears on every scene, turning learning into a fun search-and-find game. Internet links allow readers to hear every French word spoken aloud by a native speaker, supporting correct pronunciation from the very start. Together, these two books offer an engaging, low-pressure way to build both English and French word power, using pictures rather than lists to make new vocabulary stick. Two classic Usborne titles in one great-value paperback set Iconic Stephen Cartwright illustrations with the famous Little Yellow Duck on every page Builds core English vocabulary and introduces first French words Internet-linked audio support for correct French pronunciation Ideal for home learning, nursery, or early primary classrooms A trusted bestselling series loved by three generations of children About the Author Heather Amery is a highly respected children's author known for her long association with Usborne Publishing, where she has written numerous bestselling titles for young readers, including much of the First Thousand Words series.
