10 sturdy flaps open for tons of alphabet fun! This friendly snake fits in a purse or toy bag when "coiled," but unfolds to reveal the entire alphabet, from A to Z.

From "airplane," "baby," "cactus," and "dragon" to "xylophone," "yo-yo," and "zebra," this book's bright, simple illustrations provide a wonderful introduction to the alphabet, along with hours of fun! A sturdy slipcase protects the book from wear and tear. Also look for 123 Caterpillar.

10 sturdy flaps open for tons of counting fun! The compact caterpillar unfolds to become two fun number exercises for youngsters: on one side, the numbered panels of the caterpillar's body open to reveal countable groups (from 1 bicycle all the way up to 8 spider legs, 9 ladybug spots, and 10 fingers) and the spelled-out name of the number. On the reverse, each car of a train carries a countable cargo—1 teddy bear, 2 trucks, 3 cows. A sturdy slipcase protects the book from wear and tear. Also look for ABC Snake.
