Alphabet Adventure Hardcover – August 1, 2001

This book is fun and educational. My grand daughter became excited and interested in all the letters and wanted to read the book again and again. It is one of the best alphabet books that I have found so far.

One of the things I really like about this a,b,c book is that they use lower case letters... not to worry, the upper case letters make an appearance as well . I bought this book because I found that my daughter was having problems recognizing lower case letters. That is a "capital" problem being that, when writing and reading, most letters are lower case. It seems that a lot of pre-schoolers learn the alphabet in all upper case, which can later be a problem when they are learning to write and read.The author used an engaging story taking the little letters and the reader on an adventure to solve little i's problem of a missing dot (be sure to look for little i's dot hiding on each page). There is also a 2 page spread in the book that shows each letter with an item they picked in order to help little i choose a new dot - s picks a star, h picks a heart, c picks a cherry and so forth.I like this so much better than Chicka Chicka Boom Boom which uses rhymes that aren't very clever to tell a story that isn't very clever which in turn makes it tedious to read to your child.

Vibrant pictures and fun story make for a wonderful story time for both mom and toddler. Thanks to this book, the alphabet has quickly become a favorite for my son-- especially the letter "i"!Can't recommend this book enough-- I adore all of Audrey and Bruce Wood's works.

My kid LOVED this book. Later when I became a teacher I read this to my class. They in turn loved it as well. if you love Audrey Wood, you'll love this book.

I purchased this book used, which normally doesn’t bother me, but most of the pages are falling out. A bit disappointing for a book listed as “good” condition and for almost $8.I’m a teacher and have experience working in a library, so I have the knowledge to make the book useable, but it was sad to open the box to a book with pages falling out.However, the story was SUPER cute. I love that it focused on lowercase letters vs capitals and had a fun story! Great for a quick pre-K read for an alphabet lesson. Definitely recommend the book itself, and look forward to buying more from the series (probably new though, lol) in the future.

My almost 3 grandson is fixated on the alphabet and refused to sit for any story that didn't contain letters or numbers. With "alphabet storybooks" in the Amazon search engine, this book came up. He adores it! The lower case "i" looses his dot at the beginning of the story, and we had so much fun searching for its hiding place on each page once we discovered at the end of the book that the dot likes to play hide and seek. My grandson's parents have read the book again and again to him, as have I and many babysitters. The storyline moves quickly and the beautiful illustrations contain so much to look at and discover. A great book for children who don't yet know the lower case letters and a fun book everyone will enjoy reading again and again.

I wish I could give this book 10 stars! I first saw this book (along with Alphabet Mystery and Alphabet Rescue) in a school book order catalog, and we decided to check them out at the library to see if we'd like them. My 3 year old son loved them so much that we just ordered all 3 in hardcovers because they were only being sold in paperback from school. He LOVES them all, but Alphabet Adventure is both his and my favorite. This is such a cute book and my son is learning his lowercase letters from it.I would recommend this book to anyone with small children that are learning the alphabet, or learning to read and write.

Something looks a little funny. Little letter "i" is missing its dot! All the lower case letters of the alphabet go on an adventure to find little letter "i"'s missing dot.Once you notice the dot is missing, you and your child(ren) can look throughout the pages to find the red dot. Some are a challenge for little ones to find which makes it fun for the older sibling(s) as well.This is a GREAT book covering the letters of the alphabet! My 3 yr old LOVES this book. My 5 yr old enjoys it too whenever we can pry it away from my youngest. Since the kids are already into looking for something in each page, I have them look for other letters too. It's a great way to get them to learn their alphabet letters, especially the lower case letters.

excellent

My two year old daughter loves this book

Fun to read!
