Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Review
BIG R, little r,
what begins with R?
Rosy's red rhinoceros.
R...r...R

From Aunt Annie's Alligator to Rosy's red rhinoceros to a Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz, learning the alphabet is bound to be fun with Dr. Seuss. And with this small, sturdy board-book version of his classic ABC book (Dr. Seuss's ABC), even the tiniest tots can indulge in a little alphabetical education. Each letter is featured with Dr. Seuss's unmistakably nonsensical illustrations and text: "Lion with a lollipop," "Camel on the ceiling," "Uncle Ubb's umbrella and his underwear, too." The youngest readers-to-be will get lots of letter practice with the repetitive use of each letter and the easy-to-memorize rhythmic rhymes. Soon your favorite preschooler will be reading this book aloud to you! (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter

Product Description
With Dr. Seuss as your guide, learning the alphabet is as easy as A, B, C.

1 out of 5 stars Make the book a little larger and include the original text!   October 14, 2008
Should contain a warning that the original text has been edited--randomly and poorly.

I'd been reading this to my 7-mo old but needed a board book as my baby is now trying to rip real pages. I'd seen a board book version but did not expect this version to have totally different words. Some rhymes are complete--and some are not. And whoever did the editing has no ear for rhyme or rhythm. The whole point of the book is the rhyme and rhythm!

If the publishers had made the book a few pages longer and a few inches wider they could have fit in all of the text.

I wish I'd read and heeded the one-star reviews but I was in too much of a hurry.



3 out of 5 stars Not one of my favorites, but baby likes it   August 11, 2008
I have to say, I don't enjoy reading this book. I see in the reviews that there is a longer version, and I think I might like that more. This one just gets on my nerves. My son seems to really enjoy it, though.


4 out of 5 stars My son loves it!   August 8, 2008
My 10 month old son loves having this read to him. He really responds to the colours and seems to enjoy the language. Its fun to read and it gets memorised very quickly. The board printing makes it very durable as Harry loves to turn the pages.


5 out of 5 stars A Great book to teach ABC's!   July 14, 2008
I got this book because I wanted something that I could use to help teach my son his ABC's. I bought it when he was about 15 months and immediately he enjoyed the book. We would sing the song, read through the entire book, I'd point out the letters etc. I find this book a very helpful starting point for learning the alphabet, a fun way! One idea for younger toddlers, when I started we'd just read the letter and skip the other info on the page. This way the book was more managable for my toddlers short attention span. I have to say though, he really likes this book. Esp. when we first got it he'd literally sit down with the book and just flip through the pages. A++


5 out of 5 stars Great Book!   July 12, 2008
This book is perfect for a toddler learning their ABCs. My 2 year old loves the pictures and repeating all the words. Boardbooks are sturdy and great for toddlers....even though this is not exactly like the original, its still a great book.
