About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler shows their first spark of interest in letters or when you want to build a joyful daily routine around literacy. This charming alphabet book introduces a friendly cast of animal neighbors from Alan the Ant to Zak the Zebra, turning the potentially daunting task of learning 26 letters into a social visit to a whimsical zoo. It focuses on the pride of accomplishment and the curiosity that comes with naming the world around us. Parents will appreciate the rhythmic nature of the animal names and the availability of a companion song, which helps bridge the gap between passive listening and active, musical participation. It is an ideal choice for children aged 2 to 5 who are beginning to transition into 'big kid' learning activities through play and song.
What Parents Should Know
