ABC: A Child’s First Alphabet Book B is for boy . . . but in Alison Jay’s ABC, B also stands for basket, beehive, and butterfly. Featuring a simple format and bright paintings, this acclaimed alphabet book is perfect for toddlers. Older readers are encouraged to look and look again as each spread reveals a new perspective on what has come before and intriguing hints of what’s still to come.
Customer Review: Beautiful illustrations!
I bought this book for my 3 year-old son and he loves it. The illustrations are really beautiful and it is a sturdy book that is perfect for young children. I highly recommend this book.
Customer Review: Makes the Alphabet Exciting for Children and Adults Alike
I recently discovered _A B C: A Child’s First Alphabet Book_ by Alison Jay. What a delight! Each letter of the alphabet is given a full page, if not a two-page spread. The text is very simple, following the “A is for apple” format. Both upper- and lowercase versions of the target letter are shown.
The art, however, is extraordinary! It usually occupies most of the page with the target object most prominent. The subtleties, though, are what give this book its whimsical charm: other objects on the page that begin with the same letter (they are all listed on the last page) and the recurrence of objects throughout the book. Nearly every page contains as a small, obscure detail the object that will be prominently featured with the next letter of the alphabet. Sometimes these are embedded secondary details — in the pattern of a plate, for example, or on the cover of a book.
Jay’s book contains all the seeds for the discovery and excitement that prompt a child to exclaim, “Look! That’s just like . . .” and scurry back through the pages, searching for the remembered image. The suggestion of a story line is there, too, with an explorer, a map, and a treasure chest.
I am so grateful to have discovered Alison Jay (both author and illustrator). _A B C: A Child’s First Alphabet Book_ is the first book I have bought for my first grandchild, due to be born next month.
