5.0 out of 5 stars Kids love it

I don't know if this effectively teaches phonetic awareness but it has a chance to because kids love it. I bought a used version that was slightly damaged in parts and still they love it. There are TONS of moving parts, pull tabs and other tricks in the book. It is not all just one type of trick either. Almost every letter has something physical kids can do with the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Alliteration except for G
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2020
This book is great for teaching the alphabet, alliteration. and building vocabulary. However, G has two main sounds, the “hard” sound heard in glove and the “soft” sound heard in giant, represents the sound that belongs to the letter j [j]. No other word starting with g makes the H sound which Gila Monster does. So I need to point that out to my littles when they 'read' this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Annie ate apples
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2000
My daughter received this book for her first birthday and although she was too young then, now at 18 months old, she loves it! In fact she threatens a tantrum if any other book is suggested. She loves trying all the moving parts and opening the flaps, although care has to be taken that she does not rip it. This book is fantastic...original, funny, and can be taken at many levels so will suit children of many ages. It really does make a lovely present for a child.

The Rebecca Review
5.0 out of 5 stars Alphabet Lane
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2001
Learning the alphabet can be fun and this book could be used to encourage children to want to learn the alphabet, if read by the parents. The house on the cover is situated on "Alphabet Lane." Fifty-two kids live in one house!

On the first page we find Annie sitting under an "A" eating an apple. Children can lift the flaps, pull the tabs or be amused with all the action packed into this story. Even I laughed at the funny faces on the zebras and thought the "ken was kind to kittens" was sweet.

By pulling on the tabs, kids can vaporize vegetables, turn zebra stripes yellow, open a cage and let tigers out to play, juggle jelly beans and lots of fun things. Next to each picture, you will find words describing the action.

Rita read to rabbits
Jane jumped over jack-o-lanterns.

This book will amuse for quite some time! Colorful, durable, educational, cute and interactive. Your kids will love it!

I loved this book. My 7 yr old couldn't put it down. Everytime he looked at it he saw something else. The colors were so beautilful. I know she had fun creating this book.
