This is a very simple A-B-C book, for young kids to read with parents, or any family member. It is a fun tool for use as a stepping-stone to 'sound recognition'. It can be your helper as to building the reading skills that follow after 'a good foundation' of sound-preps. Sounds that will form words, when the time comes. The pictures are 'picked' as to being 'sign posts' to help them REMEMBER the sound that is HID in the object--NOT just a picture that 'starts with' that particular alphabet letter. The book has empty formatted-pages for photos, and personal family notes, as well.
