This is a bright, colorful inviting book by Yael Aharoni. The cover will attract any child, and the collection of animals is exquisite!The alphabet is a good place for children to start to learn their letters. Adding an animal that begins with each specific letter, and then adding information about the animal is an informative and learning technique for any child. As my granddaughter and I went through this book, we pronounced each letter, read about the animal that began with each letter. We would then think about other words that began with that letter.. My granddaughter learned that an Elephant can't jump, and that an Iguana is a lizard. The 'N' word is Narwhal , a type of whale. This whale was new to me, and my granddaughter was pleased that her Gramma learned a new word, too! Unicorns are a favorite in my granddaughter's house, and she recognized it right away. What a good time we had reading this book. We will go through it again and again.The illustrations are glorious, bright, colorful, lively, almost jumping off the page. The writing was geared towards children and their parents. Well Done!Highly Recommended. prisrob 12-09-13
