This board book features twenty-six sliding panels that illustrate the letters of the alphabet with attractive, well-drawn animal pictures: A for Alligator, B for Bear...etc. This one is a favorite at our household... The biggest selling point of this book is its durability: most pop-up books and panel books are easily ruined by overeager or rambunctious children. This one, however, has sliding panels that are encased in tough, solid cardboard pages, and is almost impossible for small children (ages 0-2?) to tear apart. The sliding action helps develop eye-to-hand coordination, and the panels move easily from side to side, avoiding the frustration that some movable parts can create. The pictures are nice, some of the animals are unusually named (urial and xenops, for example...) and once your kid gets the hang of it, he or she can be left alone to explore the book with no fear of it winding up in pieces. Recommended!

My 15 month old loves looking at the beautiful pictures of animals and sliding the parts back and forth.

This is a must in every child's 'learning to read' phase. This thick cardboard book can withstand the action of children and will be in your library for years to come.

There is a slide on each page allowing the child to interact with the alphabet, the book, and the animals on each page. The upper- and lower-case letters are each shown with their corresponding animal (A for alligator and B for bear).

I continue to buy copies of this book since I discovered it a few years ago, and the children I give it to have had hours of fun looking, reading, and playing.
