I remember all five of my children learning to say and identify their letters and learning to write them. I'd sit down with them and speak of little things that might help make it fun for them such as the "M has two peaks pointing up like the tops of two mountains." Well, Linda Jones has taken the joyful task of teaching children the letters by creatively giving personality, shape, rhyme, and meaning to each letter.
With each letter, it takes on a personality which is brought out in the rhyme and in the identifying words such as snake, sleek, slinky for the letter "S." As the child is being read this rhyme, he can repeat all these "S" words with emphasis on the s-s-s-s sound. This helps him to develop listening and thinking skills because he hears the sound, repeats the sound, and thinks about the context of the rhyme and the picture on the page.
Look at the "T" page and the "T" words that go along with it. "T" stands tall, too. We want our capital "T" to go all the way to the top of the space between the lines so he stands tall.
T stands tall hauling timber on top of his head.
He’s building a tree house and painting it red.
T – Timber
I really love the "B" page. When introducing "B" we get a little lesson in the letter itself, and the words that begin with "B"; but most fun of all, we get to see where "B" gets his belly. Its a bit of a "health" lesson tossed in for good measure.
Linda Jones is the mother of 4 sons and her son Branson is the illustrator of her book. Jones has a passion for helping children learn their letters, learn to read, and become life-long learners. She has a very nice website that tells lots about the alphabet and her interest in helping children read. There will soon be coloring pages that you will be able to download for free. But right now, Mom can find lots of information to help her help her kiddies with letters, reading, phonetics, etc. Be sure you check it out. CLICK HERE.
And to help a child with his or her capital letters, the author is providing a copy for one of Chat With Vera's readers. GIVEAWAY begins February 10 and ends February 25 at 12:01 a.m. EST. Open to USA addresses only. http://chatwithvera.blogspot.com/2013...
About the author: Linda was born in Albany, New York, moved to Arizona after high school graduation, and 3 years later met a handsome firefighter; together they have 4 very talented sons now ages 17 to 27. She began writing poetry in 1994, much of which was published and sold in the scrapbooking market, with popular titles such as “Forever My Little Boy,” “Forever My Little Girl,” and “Miracle of Love.” Alphabet Anatomy is her first published children’s book series. Linda’s favorite days are when all the boys are back home together, including the 2 family dogs, Zorro and Rocco, who joyfully add to the noise and chaos. She knows these words to be true: “Time sneaks up and ticks away the precious moments of each day. Before we know it, years have passed; my child will grow up way too fast…”

"Alphabet Anatomy: Meet the Capital Letters" is a fun and unique way for kids to learn how to write letters. Each letter has a little rhyme with a matching word that each letter begins with. Some are quite funny and can inspire kids to want to learn to read and write.
I would recommend this book to kids around preschool to early elementary ages.

Linda Jones' "Alphabet Anatomy: Meet the Capital Letters" invites little readers to explore the lives of letters in a fun way. Kids will learn the capital letters A through Z.
With this book, users will learn the shapes of the letter. One would have a great time reading about each letter. The illustration of letter Q made me laugh. The way it is mentioned that Q's tongue hangs to the right will help the readers to remember the alphabets well.
It is a colorful and fun-filled book. Teachers and kids both would have an amazing time exploring the letters in this book. Parents should add this book to their children's bookshelf so kids could see the Capital letters in a unique way.

I love this book so much! :) Children need to know the alphabet letters, and their sounds, to learn how to read. They learn best, when having fun! This book does that and more! What an entertaining book, that brings the capital letters to life! Learning 26 letters and sounds is a big job for children, but this book makes it enjoyable, making the process and connections, easier.
I am a mom to 6 kids, and was a teacher for 32 years. I have a BA in early childhood and elementary education, and an MA in education and reading. I know what children need, to develop into readers.
The clever rhymes in this book, incorporate words that start with the letter, including verbs that tell what each letter does. The rhymes must have taken a lot of thought from the author. I am very impressed! I like how the letters are personified, and both genders are alternatively used!
The detailed illustrations are adorable, and kids will later visualize the pages in their minds, making recognition of the letters, faster! :D The combination of visual and auditory learning is brilliant!
Here is an example: "K-Kite": "With her right arm stretched up, K can fly her kite high. Her right leg sticks forward, for balance, that's why."
Kids and adults will delight in this book, and could spend hours looking at it, and learning from it. The author gives amazing ideas and tips in the introduction, for adults to help children use the book to its fullest. Then more information is shown at the back, for promoting early literacy! I love the ideas and activities given, for creative play, and conversations about the alphabet. :)
This book about the capital letters is very special, and very important for homes and classrooms! It's awesome! :)

This book is absolutely perfect for teaching children about learning their letters and how to write them. I wish I had this for my son. Luckily I’ll have this for my 2 year old daughter. I love how it rhymes because children always remember better with that. The way the book is laid out, it is perfect for classrooms. It makes it so easy to teach. The illustrations make it fun and engaging for younger kids.

An invaluable addition to classroom shelves! While meeting the letters of the alphabet, developing your young reader’s early literacy, vocabulary, and handwriting skills. Adorable artwork accompanies this unique abecedarian story.

Learning the letters is an important part of growing up and preparing to read. Children start with capital letters, and the book, Alphabet Anatomy: Meet the Capital Letters, will help them learn. This rhyming book is bright and filled with vivid colors. The letters are animated and they explain their shapes in the rhymes. Each page has a new letter of the alphabet. The book is very cute and the rhymes are catchy. I’m sure that children of a young age will want to read this book over and over. It makes learning fun!
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

My 4-year old daughter absolutely loves this book. The rhyming couplets are fun and the imagery to help with writing letters is brilliant. I can definitely see the love for the story sparking her desire to start drawing letters soon. This is a wonderful tool for parents and schools. I highly recommend it.

I remember back long ago when I was in first grade and there was this poster that hung on the wall in my classroom. I used to love to stare at that poster and make up different stories about it each day. What was the poster you asked? It was the letters of the alphabet made to look like people. I loved it! I still think back to it and know that it was a very helpful for me to become as enthralled with learning as I am even now.
This book brings back those wonderful memories and helps establish that same attitude with my kids as I had when I was younger. It is so much fun to personify objects ( in this case the basis for our language) into lovable characters we can relate to and laugh at; but most importantly enjoy and learn from.
If the illustrations weren't enough, this book also has rhyming. And I am a firm believer in the fact it is easier to learn anything as long as it is in a enjoyable rhyme.
The only gripe I had was some of the words were a little hard to understand from a child's standpoint. Deft, gait, and some other words that may have been a little advanced for my four year old. (Actually, my older kids asked what deft meant too) This isn't necessarily a bad thing; I just mention it because my children asked what these words mean.
Other than that we loved the book and are looking forward to Meeting the Lower Case Letters when that book comes out. We give it four stars!!!

Linda Ann Jones’s Alphabet Anatomy Points the Way to Learning Fun
The Alphabet Anatomy by Linda Ann Jones is an entertaining tool with which to familiarize children just learning the alphabet with each letter form. While the author focuses completely on the capital form of each letter, the book creates a good base for the jumping-off-point. Children will delight with the stories created for each letter, which describes how the letter itself is written. Each capital letter’s tale is created through the use of regular and irregular rhymes. The poetic rhythm of each story will not only entertain young listeners and readers, but it is also a well-used and proven memory device.
The illustrations, by Branson Jones, are a simple pleasure with bright, yet softened, colors to create a visual experience for young readers. The eye first focuses on the capital letter and then is pulled around the page to look at each letter’s environment. Each page also includes a word begun by, or using the specified letter and the illustrations reflect the physical presence of that word.
Alphabetic letter recognition is not always easy for children. This book can easily be incorporated into a lesson plan for the classroom. It can also be used to give a head start to children before starting school. For the book’s size, it packs in a great deal of learning and fun for those children who are just starting the academic adventure.

Teaching youngsters the alphabet should be a fun experience for them and you as well.
Author Linda Ann Jones assists in that task with her book, Meet The Capital Letters, the first installment in her Alphabet Anatomy series.
Bringing the letters to life are the charming illustrations by Branson Jones, teenage son of the author. Youngsters will delight in the quirky drawings. They will be laughing their way through the alphabet as they learn.
The author has used rhyming verses with each illustration to help youngsters better recognize the letter. In addition, youngsters are aided in how to write each letter through its anatomy. An example: ‘F, fit and fine, both arms straight to the right,….’
Meet The Capital Letters is a fun way to teach youngsters letter identification. It will also prove to be an entertaining way to encourage youngsters to learn writing without it seeming like a chore.
This will be a useful addition to a youngster’s library and prepare them for the next installment, Meet The Lower Case Letters.

This beautifully illustrated book offers a great guide to learning the alphabet. The reader is introduced to each letter and the letters shapes and personality. The illustrations are beautiful.
Even a child that is not yet ready to read will love looking at the various shapes and colors of the alphabet. Each letter has its own rhyme that makes each letter unique. The author explains the story behind each letter that came to form the sound and shape of the letter.
Alphabet Anatomy is a great introduction to the alphabet. The book is an excellent learning tool but also with the colorful illustrations, the book is just plain fun.
The author explains that the book teaches letter shape knowledge or recognition, letter name knowledge, letter sound knowledge and letter writing ability. As stated earlier I think that a child too young to be ready for writing ability will enjoy this book.

It was the perfect time for my daughter and I to read this book. We've been working on the alphabet a lot recently (she's almost got it down!) so we were really happy to read this. This book makes learning the alphabet fun. The letters are brought to life with very colorful and creative illustrations. Along with each illustration, there is a little rhyme that goes along with it that explains how to write the letters. I think this is very helpful when learning and memorizing. I still remember rhymes that I was taught when I was a youngster. 8x8 is 64, shut your mouth and say no more! ;)
I think this book is a really fun tool to use if you're working with a child on learning or writing the letters of the alphabet. Get your kids excited about learning! We are waiting to meet the lowercase letters now!

Alphabet Anatomy: Meet the Uppercase Letters is a cute picture book that gives the "backstory" to each letter. Every letter has its own rhyme that describes its shape and a picture that highlights the rhyme and includes other words of that letter.
The rhymes are clever and cute. Children will love them and the Jones did an excellent job of spelling out the features of the letters while keeping it fun. Letter formation can also be introduced with this book, because the rhymes describe the letter's "anatomy" in the stroke order you use while writing. Linda Ann Jones' bio does not say that she was an educator, but she must have been, the book is that well crafted.
This book is perfect for family reading time at home and teachers. I read it once in my Kindergarten classroom and the children have not stopped talking about it.

I actually wish I had found this book while my children were younger. It turns the alphabet learning lessons into a fun, creative way at looking at each letter. I have no doubt this book would have helped our son learn his alphabet with less stress. He has developmental disabilities and achieves his best learning through creative and artistic means - this book totally fits the bill. This would be a great addition to any preschool/kindergarten classroom. As an example - H Happily hops on 2 stilts, tall and straight. She holds on in the middle and has a strange gait. This book is an excellent example of creative and imaginative teaching methods. 5 stars.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

With creative drawing and snazzy rhymed sentences. Each letter has a unique word match to it. While some of the words are simple other are ones rarely used and nice to see them utilized to help kids learn the meanings.
I really liked the art in Alphabet Anatomy. It was done by the author’s son which is a neat bonus I am sure for the partners and readers.
Down side that letter X is a pain to rhyme darnit. I would have preferred to still have made the word associated with it a word beginning with an X, instead of Excited, even if I couldn’t rhyme with it. I thought it might confuse a child.
Alphabet Anatomy is a very good children’s picture book with great visual and smart sentences that the kids can have fun and learn at the same time.

Do your young readers and writers ever wonder why the letters of the alphabet are shaped the way they are? The answers to their questions can finally be answered. The letter C has an interesting tale. Her right side is open so cats can come for a cozy little catnap. The letter J on the other hand runs straight down and then jumps into a curve. The letter O is for obstacles that never get in the way. Young readers can get excited about learning the alphabet and learning new words. This rhyming story has colorful pictures that show each letter in its natural habitat. Not only that, young readers will learn how to write each letter and understand its sound. Author Linda Jones utilizes the four core elements that help teach reading.

I laughed at the cover of the book. I loved the "S" and that it was a snake. My brother loves snakes so I knew he could really like this book too. I loved all the colors and different pictures for each capital letter. MY favorites were "O" and "J", especially since my name starts with J.
Right now my mom and I are working on learning the different sounds and how to write the letters in the alphabet so this book was a fun helping tool for me. If you are learning your ABC's then you should pick this book up for you next time you want to get to know the Capital Letters.

Author Linda Jones and her illustrator son Branson Jones has created a wonderful pre-k/kindergarten book to teach kids the capital letters. The wonderful rhyming descriptions explain how to draw the letters, gives a word to help remember the letter. As a teacher who started out teaching kindergarten I can definitely see the value in having this book on your shelf. If I was teaching kindergarten today I would project one letter at a time, read the rhyme and have the students practice drawing the letter. I think this should be on every kindergarten classroom shelf.

Cute alphabet book, it was an interesting concept to see the letters out and about in the world. :)
