Dr. Seuss's ABC: An Amazing Alphabet Book!

I started reading this book almost every night to my baby when he was around six-months-old. At first we would only get to about the H before he'd lose interest. The more I read it to him the longer he'd last and before I knew it we were reading the book from A to Z. He's ten-months-old now and he loves to turn the pages all by himself.

Sometimes when he's getting fussy and I want him to calm down at bedtime I start saying "Big A, little a..." and he smiles almost every time. I have the whole book memorized now after reading it so many times and I'm still not tired of reading it to him! (I have the revised version)

I am a Seuss loyalist, too, but I gotta say the folks that have their knickers in a bunch about the board-book abrigment are making mountains out of molehills. My baby grew up with the shortened version... we love it! If you prefer the longer, original version, that can be found as well. But this is still one of the greatest books ever written, no matter what format you find it in.

Call me crazy...but I like this version better than the original. I think it flows much more nicely and my daughter (2 years old) can say it along with me. Shame on you who don't like it because it isn't the "original" version. Sometimes toddlers need a shorter version (and sometimes that version might even be better!)

All I can say is that we love it!

This book takes allthe wacky fun of Dr Seuss and makes it travel sized!!My daughter loves toook at this book and I take it with me everywhere. Its small size makes it easy to just throw in the diaper bag (or purse) and go! Plus the board pages are sturdy so you don't have to worry about over-zealous infants ripping pages.

This irresistible rhyming board book dances through the alphabet with the infectious cadence and zany illustrations that bear the hallmark of Seuss. ("Big F, little f, what begins with F? Four fluffy feathers on a Fiffer-feffer-feff.")

I see a customer wrote that the board version cannot compare with the original hardcover. I have both versions and they don't differ drastically. Either way, what child or grown-up can resist "Ten tired turtles on a tuttle-tuttle tree..."

My son who is 4 years old truly enjoys this book. He reads it everyday (pretend to read it only by memory). This one is fun to read out loud ~~ and it really teaches our children the fun of learning our alphabet. While they are still young to know the alphabet, they do enjoy the bright colorful pictures of this book as well as the whimsical language Dr. Seuss is famous for!

If you like Red Fish, Blue Fish, you will enjoy this one. It moves along at a fun pace and it's not boring to repeat yourself time after time!
I highly recommend this one ~~ it's hard to get tired of reading this one!, my son can second that motion.
