Animal Action ABC

Summary: Beautiful and lots of fun
Review: A different take on the boring "A" is for "Apple" ABC book. The wildlife pictures are beautiful. As a mom, my personal favorite is the "R" is for "Ride" showing a newborn gorilla riding on it's mom's back. I've given this book as a gift and it's been well received.

Summary: Learn more than ABC
Review: My 2 and 3 year olds love this book. The pictures are bright and captivating, and the kids love to follow the poems with their own motions. Animal Action ABC combines lessons on ABCs, animals and gross motor skills. My son learned to jump and stand on one foot from acting out this book. For the reader, it can take a few readings to get the hang of the odd pentameter, but the children don't notice your mistakes. They are far too busy pretending to be a grapling tiger or an elephant blowing water from his trunk. Boys seem to especially enjoy this book, but my little girl is a big fan too.
