Here are the 10 Best Alphabet Books that I love to read in my room! The videos are attached so you can check them out.
1. Alphabet Under Construction by Denise Flemming-A hardworking rodent is building the alphabet. The industrious mouse creates a letter using an activity beginning with that letter. The exhausted mouse’s month of hard work is rewarded: the last page shows the completed alphabet.
Mouse dyes the D-a shimmery tie-dye effect so phonemic awareness happens naturally. The mouse’s actions are related to construction or artwork.
Fleming has poured colored cotton fiber through hand-cut stencils to make her illustrations, which are bold in outline and shape.
