Hi, can you tell me: what are your reviews on the following books:
“The Accidental Zucchini” by Max Grover
“Alligator Arrived with Apples: A Potluck Alphabet Feast” by Crescent Dragonwagon
“The Wacky Wedding” by Pamela Duncan Edwards
Anna Geiger
I’m sorry, Wendee – I haven’t read those three!
Wendee
Well, can you at least give me some replacement books for the books “I Stink!”, “Fancy Nancy’s Favorite Fancy Words”, and “Old Black Fly”?
Anna Geiger
Yes – there are 47 others in the post! 🙂 I really did review as many books as I could, and these were my top picks.

Hi Michele!
This is Kate, Anna’s assistant. You’ll find the list for all the Letter of the Week books at the bottom of the Subscriber Library in the “Other” section. It’s currently the very last free printable in the Library. Here’s the link: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/top-ten-secrets-great-teaching/#other
We hope you enjoy the books!

I thoroughly enjoyed your list of creative ABC books. I love collecting these literary gems for my grandchildren and found a number of “new” titles among your list that I will be adding to our library. Thank you!

What a lovely and useful list. I work for a literacy organisation and also collect Alphabet books (just because I love them)! I have found so many wonderful and exciting looking books here, that I didn’t know about. Thank you.
Anna Geiger
I’m glad you discovered some new titles here, Beth! That’s my favorite part of putting these lists together – finding new books to love. 🙂

Thank You, for literacy this list of books if beyond perfect, it is my right hand for reading the alphabet to our Head Start Class.
