About the book: (from the book)
For over fifty years Babar, the benevolent elephant king, has been teaching the joy of reading in the nicest possible way-through delightful, imaginative stories enjoyed the world over. In keeping with the spirit of these stories, Laurent de Brunhoff’s Babar’s ABC is the very nicest kind of teacher to have around the home. Use it first with very young children for simple object recognition; later for letter and word identification; and finally, as the child approaches reading age, for that satisfying first step into reading complete sentences. Babar’s ABC is a very special book to grow with!
