I like the illustrations and the rhymes for each letter are full of initial letter sounds. This is a great book to help students connect letter sounds to symbols. I also like how the illustrations show the letters in natural environments. One thing I noticed is that the book has 9 letters that deal with knights, dragons, castles, and other such medieval-type issues. This is not a fault, but not what I expected when I saw the bear for letter B on websites that promoted this book. All in all, I think this book will be great for helping my students grasp letter formations and sounds!

An engaging and original alphabet book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The alphabetical poetry of Howard Schrager is nicely showcased by the illustrations of Bruce Bischof in L M N O P and All the Letters A to Z, an engaging and original alphabet book for beginning readers. Each letter of the alphabet is featured with a warm color illustration and a unique, catchy, alliterate poem perfect for reading aloud. Some suggested means for using L M N O P and All the Letters A to Z for teaching young people are presented in a thoughtful forward. "B is in bowl, bag, basket, and bin,/All manner of places/To keep berries in./A brawny brown bear/Called Big Belly/Beholds a bee buzzing;/Oh our busy B." Highly recommended for school and community library ABC book collections for beginning readers.
