5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the little one, great for Mom and Dad
This was one of my son's first favorite books. He would listen to me read it as many times as I was willing, and because of Wegman's non-cutesy approach, that was many times indeed. Although the dog-formed letters aren't as clear as text, they don't need to be - there are many other instances of the letters on each page, and hearing them is as important as seeing them...

2.0 out of 5 stars Difficult for young children to visualize the letters
My daughter loves dogs so I thought she could learn the alphabet and enjoy the pictures of the dogs. Well, she loved the pictures of the dogs, but the letters were very difficult for her to visualize. This is not a book to help with the alphabet as much as it is for the visual creativity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Humorous for children AND adults, June 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
My 5 year old son has this book memorized. He laughs everytime he reads it. It has also been very helpful in teaching him the alphabet. It is an especially fun book for us since our pet is a Weimeraner.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new approach to the alphabet, January 27, 2000
This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
This book made me wish learning the a-b-c's were this much fun back in my own childhood. The photos are amazingly original and your kids will truly enjoy coming back to their letter lessons with Wegman's adorable dogs. A very fresh approach to teaching! NOTE: check out Wegman's fairy tales featuring his prize dogs too.

5.0 out of 5 stars As much for grown ups as for children, January 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
Funny with a different sense of humor. Characters become quickly familiar. My two-year old's favorite (and I don't even like dogs!).

5.0 out of 5 stars sublime, September 30, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
I wondered if Wegman could surpass himself once again and he sure does. A generous treat for all ages with irresistible examples of how to find the soul of a weimaraner or two.
An ABC changed into very heaven.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dog gone entertaining, November 9, 2006

This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
We originally found this book at the library. We wore it out in the two weeks we had it. The only problem was when the book was put together it was not in order. My kids wanted to check it out again but I was afraid they would think that was the order of the alphabet so I ordered them their own copy. The pictures are great and they will use the phrases from each letter over and over again. It's helped my three year old recognize letters everywhere. We bought a few more Wegman books because we enjoyed this one sooo much!

2.0 out of 5 stars Cute...but not good for little ones, June 1, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ABC (Hardcover)
The book is cute, but it is difficult to decipher the letters that the dogs are forming. I bought this book because we have a weimaraner and I thought my son would really be able to relate to the book. Unfortunately, that was not the case. He is just learning his ABCs (he's 20 months) and I do not feel that the letters are obvious enough for teaching purposes. It is artistically great, but not for little kids.
