Nobody teaches kids the alphabet like the author of The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, and Hop on Pop! This board book edition features abridged text for the littlest reader.

Letters come alive on the page as Dr. Seuss fills the alphabet with his classic colorful characters--from Aunt Annie's alligator to the Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz, with a lion licking a lollipop and an ostrich oiling an orange owl. Starting with the most basic building blocks of language, Dr. Seuss makes reading FUN!

BIG A,
little a,
what begins with A?

Bright and Early Board Books are super sturdy, simplified board book editions of classic Beginner Books. First launched in 1996, they have introduced millions of toddlers to beloved books from Dr. Seuss, P. D. Eastman, and other author-illustrators, in a format just right for young readers!

Short but engaging book in typical Dr. Seuss style
This book has the usual feel of a Dr. Seuss book - relatively short, imaginative, fun, a good rhythm to the text and memorable.Good use of lower and uppercase letters for letter shape recognition and the silliness of the content thoroughly engages my 3 year old who loves trying to copy saying the words.My only gripe with the book, and it is a small one, is that the final rhyme for Z is spoken with the Americanised ‘zee’ sound so doesn’t quite work reading it with the English ‘zed’ ponounciation.

I have good memories of this as a child, used it for my first daughter now 16 and have a copy for my current baby daughter ready to go. Suess's books foster a love of reading. The text is spot on and the alliterations make them very memorable. 'Kick a kettle, kite and a king's kerchoo!' sticks in my mind as one example. Great stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Camel on the Ceiling. C - C - C
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 October 2014
Verified Purchase
I have vague memories of my parents reading this to me as a child and bought it for my daughter after finding it cheap here. It's much better than the standard Alphabet song for teaching children letters.
For each letter the captial and lower case forms are shown along with a catchy rhyme to demonstrate a range of possible ways the letter might sound. For example one of my favourites is:
Big F, little f, what begins with f? Four Fluffy Feathers on a Fiffer-Feffer-Feff.

My only gripe with it is that Z only rhymes if you say Zee not Zed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Both my husband and me love this book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 April 2016

Both my husband and me love this book. We read it all the time to our toddler and carry it round in her change bag. It is the ideal size and as with all Dr Seuss books the illustrations and rhymes keep adults and infants equally entertained. I even found that when I read this to Sophie at a mother and toddler group other toddler came round to listen so it is obviously very appealing to little minds. The only thing I find a little annoying is that the rhyme at the end doesn't work for English pronunciation of the letter z it is designed for Americans who pronounce the letter zee.
