This introductory book to the English Alphabet is perfect for the learning reader in your life. Each letter is accompanied by a beautiful work of art that children will recognize, such as Apple, Balloon, Cat and Dog. There maybe be some that a child has not been exposed to yet like Yak or Xylophone, but each word to represent the letter has been chosen from US standards of education for early object to letter recognition. The book includes simple sentences, such as “Apple starts with A.” Each letter also has a sentence that may be more challenging to beginning readers, such as “A hand holds an apple.” These challenges are designed to recognize how picture books can help early readers when they are sounding out words.
