Alphabet Man

About the Book

Believing children learn best when actively involved in the learning process has led to the creation of The Alphabet Man. In the book children are given the opportunity to make the capital letter shapes with their bodies by following the Alphabet Man’s examples. The cartoon characters and the lilting verse help to create a book that can be enjoyed long after the alphabet letters have been learned. Older children enjoy using letter body shapes to practice spelling and phonics skills. So jump up, pose your body into letter shapes, and have fun learning letters with the Alphabet Man.
