Cute and the illustrations are lovely, some of the words don’t really fit the sound they go with if the goal is phonics not just letters-such as cherish for C and generosity for G.

Just the type of book I was looking for 💕

Read this baby in line at TJ Maxx, the Q and R pages were repeated TWICE!!! What is this, random house???

I thought my son and I would really enjoy this book since he loves the ABC song. However, this book is too wordy for him & distracts from the old tune. He also doesn't seem interested in the art. I may make this one of his special holiday books I only take out for Valentine's Day or remove it from his library entirely.

Really starting the confusion of phonics early with “K is for knowing” and “X is for kisses”

My son loves this book and I read it probably 5 times a week. Maybe more. It's great for his age (3) and is fun
