BUY IT. Trust me. I have a library of over 200 children's books for my son, age 2. I was stunned at what an excellent item this is when we received it! He is only two but he knows his letters, so I thought the ABC board book would be a good fit for him. I had no idea! It was neat that he'd learned his letters already, but now I can ask him, "James, what letter does "airplane" start with?" and get the right answer. He knows DOZENS of these, thanks to this book!
We love a great read and that is how we enjoy one another's company much of the day. This isn't a "Mommy, read it!" book. It's an "I'll let you sit on my lap and I'll hold the book so you can build your brain while I rest book." I love a book that I DON'T have to read just as much as one I do have to read. :) My son sits calmly on my lap, picking through the pages and pointing to realistic pictures of items, while telling me what each one is called. It's excellent for vocabulary building. It helps him build confidence in his ability to "read." And it has shown him that letters(shown on the pages for the words shown that begin with them,) MEAN something.
This is one of those books that I think everyone should have. It will be part of my future baby gifts from here on out. (I like to give books because no one else does and they are the single best building block to education that I can provide to the child, as someone outside the home. Plus, they last forever compared to baby clothes!)
I really encourage you to add this item to your home library. Your child will benefit from it immensely and you will both enjoy "reading" it. ;)

I saw the reviews for this book and thought it will be good for my daughter who is 22 months old and is crazy about ABC songs. First I thought I will try the sample and sample didnt open any pages other than the first title page. It shows blank white pages if I flip the page further with the title of the book on the left top corner of the pages. I thought it was a problem with the sample so went ahead buying the book. Sadly event the downloaded book doesnt have any pages beyond the the colorful title of the book. Also it wont even scroll beyond 1% if I try to scroll. and at somepoint I see a wait round cursor telling me some kind of refresh is happening but then it is gone. Now my daughter knows the book exists on her kindle and is disappointed when there is nothing to read in it!!!!!
