This is a classic, but it is so much much fun to read. One of my criteria for selecting books is that they have to be fun for the parent too (when you enjoy reading a book it shows and it makes reading time so much more enjoyable, and this is one of my favorites to read aloud.
This book is so much fun to read aloud. In typical Dr. Seuss form it’s filled with rhymes and nonsense words and lots of letter play. Note though the the board book version is abridged and not nearly as good as the original!
This book is quite impressive. For starters there food for every letter of the alphabet- who knew? The illustrations are bright, bold, and colorful which makes it fun for everyone. If you want a non-alphabet book pairing it goes well with growing vegetable soup by the same author (who also illustrated Chicka Chicka Boom Boom as well).
This is a classic abc board book, similar to the Eric Carl version (Eric Carl’s abc) featuring the work of Charlie Harper. Both books are good, but I have a soft spot for the Charlie Harper version, the illustrations are beautiful and just a little more unexpected.
This book is really clever, the way the pages fit together with the raised letters and indents on the page where they fit. It’s super tactile and the minimalistic illustrations allow the letters to Star. It’s my favorite abc board book.
