This carefully designed book shows preschoolers and early-school-age youngsters how to print the letters of the alphabet and identify objects beginning with those letters. By simply following the directional arrows. Children can trace dashed outlines for an upper- and lowercase letter "A," as well as the outlines for pictures of an apple, ark, arrow, and animal.All 26 letters of the alphabet and related objects are represented in a similar fashion — from boat, car, and duck to X-ray, yo-yo, and zebra. Guidelines on the bottom of each large page invite youngsters to print a capital letter and small letter on their own. Boys and girls will especially like this fun-to-use book because they can color all the objects that go with the letters.
