Description



About the Book



Featuring thick pages cut into the shape of each letter, this board book creates a sort of peek-through guessing game around the letter form itself. As children interact with the pages, they will familiarize themselves not only with the 26 letters and associated words, but also with each letter's angles, holes, and curves, both front and back. Full color.



Book Synopsis



Learning the alphabet is as easy as A, B, C in Alphablock, a unique and bestselling interactive favorite. Young readers will explore letters in an exciting way, from A to Z.

With thick pages cut into the shape of each letter, children and parents will enjoy this peek-through guessing game.

Sprinkles, hot fudge, and cherries hint at I's ice-cream sundae, while aquarium accessories hint at F's fish. As young readers interact with the pages, they'll familiarize themselves not only with the 26 letters and associated words, but also with each letter's physicality--angles, holes, and curves, both front and back.

Like other titles in the beloved Block Book series, Alphablock features die-cut shapes throughout and sturdy pages with rounded corners, perfect for little hands.

With bright, animated, retro-inspired artwork by Peski Studio, Alphablock encourages the smallest readers to manipulate the alphabet in a whole new way and is a must-have ABC book. Your child will have so much fun reading this book, they won't realize learning the alphabet is part of their education!

"All the parts together make an appealing and fun way for youngsters to interact with the alphabet, and for slightly older children to enjoy the clever artwork." --School Library Journal (starred review)

"Lively and tactile." --Wall Street Journal

This tactile book makes it extra engaging!

I had seen this book and held off on purchasing it because... well it's an ABC book with a pretty hefty price tag. But my 22 month old son who has some mild delays started expressing an interest in the alphabet so I pulled the trigger. Oh my gosh he has learned so many of these words in just a few days. He sits and reads this book to himself multiple times a day. I love that the words vary from typical (a is for apple) to not so typical (j is for juggler) so that there is some variation in the ease of understanding. So my son understands apple, ice cream and all the tangible things he is exposed to frequently but we can work towards understanding juggler and zoom.
