Alphabatics

Bibliographic Information: MacDonald, Suse. (1986). Alphabatics. New York, NY: Simon & Schuster.

Brief Annotation: This is an alphabet book with a twist. Before each word, the letters spin and contort to create a part of the image that represents the word.

Genre: Alphabet

Grade Level: Pre-K - 1

Readers who will like this book: Anyone who is learning the alphabet and likes to turn things around to see what they make.

Rating/Response: 2 out of 4. The illustrations are interesting and fun, especially the turning of the letters. MacDonald uses a few words rarely used in alphabet books, but most are common words.

One question I would ask before a read aloud: How do letters turn into shapes and pictures?
