So Fun, but Came Damaged

I used to love this book when I was a kid, so I bought it to read to the little one I watch. He loves it too, but when I received my copy it was already colored in and the book was a little damaged. I understand some wear and tear since these are old books and out of press, but I wish I had known the pages were actually colored on. Still love the book, though!

Fun fundamentals with familiar Veggie characters :-)

Families who are familiar with the VeggieTales videos will enjoy this alphabet book, which features all your favorite Veggie characters and makes references to many of the Veggie video stories. The rhyming is good, so it's pleasant to read aloud over and over again! The illustrations are colorful, as is to be expected from the Veggies. The reinforcement of family values and God's truths is natural and doesn't come across as forced.

One of the best

Buy this book! This book is so well written, very catchy. My son would read this each week in his church nursery class. He loved it so much we bought it, and it has been read at least 100 times since!

One of our favorites!

My daughter loves Veggietales and especially the whole Educational Series that they came out with including, Shapes, Colors, Opposites, etc. They are catchy with their fun rhymes and rhythms, bright colors, and familiar friends. If you want good clean fun, education, and further imparting good Christian values...VeggieTales are a way to go.

Engaging romp through the alphabet

Alphabet Larry and Alphabet Bob are great tour guides through the alphabet. It helps if you've watched a few of the VeggieTales videos so that you'll "get" all the references (such as a hero with plungers and Qwerty). But even if you've never seen one, the art and rhythm of the text are engaging to all children. My son's loved it ever since he was just a few months old. And if I need him to calm down when he's crying, I just start reciting the book. My only complaint: X, Y and Z get short shrift!

This book really lives up to the VeggieTales reputation!

Our whole family likes our Veggies, and Bob and Larry's ABC's was no disappointment. The rhymes and rhythm of the text is enchanting to even the youngest of children. The book combines education with humor and familiar scenes from the VeggieTales movies to produce a book that is absolutely delightful! The only problem is that my son wants us to read it over and over and over... non-stop!
