Customer Reviews

Really good early alphabet book

We got this book (together with My First Word and My First Animals) books from the same series from my parents when my daughter was 9 months old, and she took to it immediately. The book has clear and bright pictures, and it's sturdy. We've been through one year of active reading, and all the flaps are still in place. I think it helped a lot with her vocabulary. Now, at the age of 22 months, she can name pretty much each object in the book, often together with stories that we made up about the objects. I definitely recommend it.

A FUN BOOK

This book is fun! It is also a great educational tool. The pictures are big, bright, and bold...just right for young eyes! We gave this to my great-neice for Christmas. She unwrapped lots of gifts that night (even some dolls). However, she went straight for this little book. Carrying it around all night looking under the flaps, saying "Look Momma!!!!!". That's proof enough right there!

My One Year Old Loves this book!!

What I appreciate about this book is that the pictures are actual photographs rather than drawings. Most books for babies tend to be cartoon drawings and it makes it confusing for children to learn the words for things when they try to relate to a cartoon dog versus a real dog (for example). This book shows many, many pictures and words of real everyday things. The flaps add even more fun to the book and really get the babies involved.

Colorful and Fun - a great combination

Trying to get two year old active twins to sit with a book is very difficult. I was thrilled to see a lift the flap book (which they love) combined with learning the alphabet. The size of the book is large so both boys can see and play with a page at the same time. They get a little frustrated when not every picture has a flap to lift to show another picture but they are definitely engaged and interacting with this book and the letters -- just what we wanted!
