Chockablock "search" pictures and cheerful rhymes promote concentration and language skills.

Like its companion book, I Spy 123, this colourful search book is hiding a cornucopia of toys, sweets, foods, wooden beads, dolls, natural items and much more, all hidden within a letter. Searching while learning the alphabet - as well as colours, counting, vocabulary, memory and attention - is a fun experience of surprise and achievement.

On each letter page are short rhyming verses setting the reader's task to find specific items and providing hints of where those might be found. But of course, there are hundreds more items which are not hinted at, so the challenge and fun are endless.

The answers to the rhymes - where is the item mentioned? - are at the back of the book. This is a great book for sharing, alone time and bedtime.

Families looking with their little eyes for seek-and-find activity need peer no longer.-- (08/12/2017) [Review of hardcover edition: ] Learning their ABCs is the foundation for early literacy and this beautifully illustrated picture book provides a solid start by appealing to a child's curiosity. They are encouraged to search each letter of the alphabet and learn about colours and counting while developing vocabulary, memory and attention. The amazing pictures include a cornucopia of toys, food, items from nature and more, combined with cheerful rhymes that set the reader's task to find specific items based on hints. There are also hundreds of other items to discover. This is a great book for reading together or alone.-- (09/01/2017)
