Here is a quick music fact....did you know you can changeyour tone and sound just by the pick you use?That's right,with a thinner pick,you get a brighter tone,and,it is a bit easier to pick notes and strum an acoustic guitar.I 
recommend a thinner/larger pick for beginners.When i say large i mean the normal size pick,not the big triangle type pick say,Carlos Santana used or uses.
And a thicker pick,harder pick will give you a darker,less bright sound.But,it is more difficult to use for the beginner guitarist.Picks come in many,many different sizes,shapes

thicknesses and materials.Once you get your feet on the ground with your playing,go out and buy a variety of picks and find which works best for you,your style,and the tone you are looking for.I personally prefer the Dunlop "jazz" picks,and the Dunlop "tortex".The size is smaller and the shape fits nicely in my fingers.
Also,try cutting down a pick to create your own personal one,or just make your own from scratch!Here is a link to an earlier post on how to make your own picks...
