Hello Kitty's way with words

The word adorable is rarely used in reference to a good-old-fashioned dictionary, but when feline sweetheart Hello Kitty is involved, any product is sure to have the 'aww' factor'.

My First Hello Kitty Dictionary will guide your child through her early language learning, with a helping paw from the iconic Japanese character and playful pals. Word definitions are written with the worldview of young children in mind, the alphabet is listed on the edge of each page and suitably sweet illustrations elevate this into a truly user-friendly learning tool.
