BIG A,
little a,
what begins with A?

One of my favorite books
I have read this book as a child and now that I am an adult I still love it. I am tickled pink by the zany character names in the book. My two favorite characters in the book are the fiffer-feffer-feff and the zizzer-zazzer-zuzz. I find this book to be an entertaining and wacky way for people to learn the alphabet. I have read the board book version of this, which I think is markedly abbreviated. I prefer the original hardcover version over the board book.

I read Dr. Seuss books to my children from the time they were born until they could read for themselves. They loved the rhyming words and laughed at the silly pictures.
Take a child’s hand and trace the letters while you sing the ABC song. My children recognized and said their ABC’s by the time they were two. Thank you, Dr. Seuss!
Now I send Dr. Seuss books as presents for both the child and parents.

It's a great alphabet book. Bought it for our 3 year old who memorized the alphabet in under a week. No he's getting the grip of understanding it as well. It's really entertaining with funny illustrations.
