5.0 out of 5 stars What a delight!, April 13, 2000

By	Debbie Tam "gabrielsmom" (Omaha, NE) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Alphabears: An ABC Book (Hardcover)

Alphabears is a delightful introduction to the ABCs. Each letter is introduced as the name of a teddy bear with a distinct personality tied into the same letter. Each letter has two rhyming lines. The illustrations are outstanding. They are gentle and harken back to an earlier time. It is incredible that this book was written and illustrated in the 80's. It is a very old-fashioned ABC book and will delight old and young alike!

5.0 out of 5 stars Alphabears, children's books, alphabet, hague, April 5, 2008

By	Kathleen - See all my reviews

This review is from: Alphabears: An ABC Book (Paperback)

This is a charmingly illustrated book with a story on every page. My son at 3 used to stop me and ask about the scenes - why is this? who is that? where are they going? Great for imaginative reading and story telling.

This review is from: Alphabears: An ABC Book (Board book)

I love the illustrations in this book - they are so sweet. I had bought this book for my own daughter when she was a baby and now I just bought it for my twin grandsons.
