Join us at a hukilau in Hawaii! Let's cast our net into the sea and watch what we catch--instead of catching Butterflyfish or a Rainbow wrasse, we catch the entire alphabet from A to Z. It's a fun way to learn the alphabet and a few facts about some of Hawaii's colorful and amazing sea life. A photographic glossary of fish is included.
An alphabetical tour through the coolest jobs you can imagine—and some you might never have heard of! With a sophisticated, minimalist design and visual jokes to interpret on every page, Work: An Occupational ABC introduces children both to the alphabet and to a range of alternative careers. The ideal reader for this book is the child (or adult) who is interested in exploring all manner of professions through original and inspired illustrations. Must be open to adventure. Knowledge of the alphabet is desirable but not required, since successful applicants will receive training from A to Z.
"Aa is for apple. Bb is for boat. Cc is for caterpillar." From A to Z, young readers will learn different words that begin with each letter in this easy-to-read book that features photographs. Studies show that young learners find it easier to associate real-life items to real photographs than to illustrations. Each uppercase letter is shown with its lowercase partner so children can begin to learn the alphabet. Perfect for pre-readers and eager learners. Point to each letter and sing the alphabet song for added fun! Other books in the Read & Learn series include: Counting, Farm Animals and Wild Animals.
Do you know what a Chrysina resplendens or a Papilionidae butterfly looks like? Travel through the alphabet with The Other Bugs to learn about the many beautiful and unusually named bugs found in nature—and brush up on those ABCs as well! Valerie Gates’s charming alliterative style paired with Ann Cutting’s stunning photographs of all types of bugs is sure to delight curious children and adults alike. Children who already know their basic bugs will broaden their horizons, and parents who are tired of simple butterflies and beetles will find this book worth rereading. Spectacular photographs of insects of all kinds will inspire children to learn more about the different creatures found in the natural world. And while children learn about bugs, they are also learning the alphabet through silly sentences. This is an ideal gift for new parents and for young nature-loving children!
