review 1: Every young student will enjoy this, but perhaps young readers the most will laugh at the pictures and enjoy puzzling over the words that appear when a letter from the alphabet is taken away. Perhaps they can create their own page to add? The chair has hair, when one takes away the C, and Without the M, the farm is too far. The illustrations are silly and delightful. When my granddaughter, whose on the “cusp” of reading a word here and there, first heard the title, she began to sing the alphabet song, “without” the A, & giggled. You can see what she thought, that taking away one letter made the song different, and while she didn’t always understand the word changes, she did enjoy the pictures and loved the idea of a missing letter.
review 2: No only
... moreis it clever how the author found two words that are connected by a particular letter of the alphabet, he also has to make a textual connection to the two words, so that each phrase tells a mini-story.The double-page illustrations for each letter have a variety of animals or objects acting human, such as the jars of jam.Delightful - l'm looking forward to sharing this with my first graders! less
