All In the Woodland Early
| All in the Woodland Early: An ABC by Jane Yolen: This
delightful alphabet book features birds, animals, and insects of the North
American woodland for each letter, artfully worked into a story in verse
that can also be sung to the music, which is included in a simple voice and
piano setting. Each forest creature has been exquisitely and accurately
illustrated in full color. The names of the animals, together with their
pictures, are aids to remembering the sounds of the letters, and the rhyme
and rhythm of the easily-memorized verse will help to recall their sequence.
A perfect first step to reading, this cumulative tale has a surprise ending
that contains a message all young readers will respond to. Together author
and artist have created a book that provides both learning and joy, a beautiful
book that will become a permanent treasure.
