Editorial Reviews

Here is a big yellow book that contains only six actual pages. Embedded into both sides of each very thick page are four good-sized letters of the alphabet, two on each side. Each of the colorfully patterned letters can easily be removed and placed back into its own spot. To help hold the letters in place, the outside edge of each letter has three small notches cut into it that match three tiny projections in its home spot on the page. When a letter is removed, the picture of a word beginning with that letter is revealed. Once freed from their places in the book, the letters can be used to make words or be held up like flash cards, or they can be fixed on the stands provided inside the back cover to make colorful sculptures. There cannot be too many ways to help children become familiar with the alphabet, and this bulky little playbook of A B C's can become a fun way for them to learn their letters.
