A pre-school learning tool and novelty book featuring 45 flaps. It covers the alphabet from A to Z, using pictures with word labels. By lifting the flaps children can find other related alphabet words together with visuals.

Review:

Preschoolers will want to return to this vivid, lively interactive board book again and again to identify all the alphabetically organized words. Every two-page spread features four to seven letters and is packed with crisp captioned photos of people, activities, and familiar objects. Among the many pictures are 45 flaps young readers can lift for still more alphabetical delights: lift the wing of the flying bird for a picture of feathers. Under pizza is, of course, a plate. Behind the window is a girl with a watering can. Kids will giggle at the touches of humor in the book. Behind the flap of the girl is a picture of the same girl wearing very goofy glasses. Two kids stand side by side under the letter K; lift the flap to see one kid trying to kiss the other.

DK Publishing's signature style, with its beautifully photographed subjects, will be very familiar to fans of the many other My First Word books, including My First Number Sticker Book, My First Word Lift-the-Flap Board Book, and My First Animal Board Book. (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter
