This is a simple ABC book with vibrant colors and classic pictures. The positioning of the letters in combination with the pictures make this simple book interesting.

are learning their Alphabet. One lesson I would have to go along with this book would be, each student gets one letter, and a color sticker that corresponds with that letter, go around the room, and put a sticker on objects that they think starts with that letter, and them we would make a list as a class of words that start with each letter around our classroom.

The beautiful illustrations by Bruno Munari make this an exceptional ABC book. Each alphabet is allotted two pages most of the time and showcase beautiful water color like pictures with different types of details.
