PreS-K–A playful alphabet board book for preschoolers who love birds. The black uppercase letters are set on a white background with Flora as the unifying element on each page. Children will have fun discovering what is hidden in this lift-the-flap book and naming each bird, from the blue-footed booby to an ibis. The illustrations, drawn in colored pencil, rely on lively primary and composite colors presenting yellow as a coalescent pictorial element. Preschoolers will feel empowered flipping the flashcardlike pages and discovering the clear and straightforward art that directs their attention to the big letter and alphabet-matching type of bird.
VERDICT A familiar alphabet board book for curious preschoolers who like naming and matching.
