Dr. Seuss - Dr Seuss's ABC: An Amazing Book

Pros: A great book for kids of all ages, highly educational, simply silly!
Cons: It's Dr. Seuss .. there are no cons!

Learning the alphabet is about as important as learning their phonetic partners. Dr. Seuss books have long been revered as the 'must have' books to get kids interested in learning and reading. Far be it for me to disagree. Be it a cat in a hat, ...

Pros: Colorful; creative; fun; teaches letter recognition and typical letter sounds
Cons: None for us, though I heard "Silly Sammy slick sipped six sodas and got sick."

If they ever held a huge convention for the writers and illustrators of alphabet books (both past and present) I think Dr. Seuss would be the envy of almost everyone in the room. Who else but Dr. Seuss could make learning and reviewing the alphabet ...

Pros: Teaches letters and early reader skills
Cons: Redundant for adults

Dr. Seuss's ABC
This book is a beginner book for readers, stamped right on the front cover it says: "I Can Read It All By Myself". It is a paperback with 63 pages. Now, that sounds like a lot of pages for a Dr. Seuss book, but before...

Pros: rhyme and rhythm, easy to learn the patterns, it's Dr. Seuss
Cons: don't get the old version, the new is better

The beloved Dr. Seuss wrote this timeless book, originally copryrighted over 50 years ago. It's hard to believe it's been that many years. Yet, that amount of time is a testament to his work. While many of his books are stories about his many ...

Pros: Educational, Silly Fun
Cons: If you do not like Suess, it will drive you crazy!

I HATE THIS BOOK! Yet, I LOVE THIS BOOK!
Never have I ever felt so strongly on both ends of the spectrum for any book as I do for Dr. Suess’s ABC.

I HATE IT!…..
I had never been fond of Dr. Suess books as a child and do not like...

Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

I have been reading Dr. Seuss books for over 18 years and I don't think that I will ever stop. As most people know, Dr. Seuss books are great for everyone, no matter your age.

When my nephew, Aiden, was born in 1997 we signed him up to a...

Pros: Fun introduction to the alphabet
Cons: None at all

Sometimes when I'm having trouble getting to sleep at night, I lie in my bed and recite Dr.Seuss books to myself. Oddly enough, it works. And only a mom or an early childhood educator would know the books well enough to recite them from memory!...

Pros: teaches the alphabet imaginatively
Cons: Something tells me Zizzer-Zazzer-Zuzz isn't going to show up on too many spelling tests.

"BIG A, little a, what begins with A?" Once again, Dr. Seuss's simple repetitious style produces a winner. Why? Well, it's as simple as ABC! Many different books and toys exist to teach young children the alphabet, but this is one of the most ...

Pros: Entertaining and educational; children love it.
Cons: None

Pros: You don't have to be a kid to have fun reading this book!
Cons: None... unless of course you find Fiffer-feffer-feffs offensive!

Who better to learn your ABCs from than Dr. Suess?! Dr. Suess makes learning FUN, EASY, and CREATIVE in his ABC book! You can hardly wait to turn the page and see what the next letter has in store!

Dr. Suess's ABC book will keep your...

Pros: Perfect size for my son to hold, pages easy to turn
Cons: Nonsense words are silly, but not my favorite.

In our house, we're big fans for Dr. Seuss. My son has at least a dozen of his books. All of the books are the board book version. We have learned that my son (19mo) is a big page ripper so we only give him the sturdy board books at this time...

Pros: Presents the ABC's in a fun and delightful manner
Cons: The language of Dr. Seuss may be confusing for young readers!!

As an early childhood educator and a mom, I recommend this book to bring the ABC's into concrete form for children. The storyline is not appropriate for preschool children. The book provides a satisfying assortment of shaggy-haired, oddball characters...
