Synopsis

Steer children toward a lifetime of reading with more than two hundred activities, games, and songs to introduce the alphabet. It all begins with twenty-six letters; the wiggles and squiggles that turn into words, stories, poems, and great literature are the tools for future readers. Children will love learning their letters as they play the Name Game, sew their own letters, create Puzzle Pairs, and more! Jean Feldman and Holly Karapetkova apply their signature style of creativity and fun activities to teach literacy skills and the alphabet!
