Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
My First Alphabet Book
Amber Lily · 2020
76/100
👍 Worth It
Amber Lily and Zhanna Ovocheva's board book does exactly what an alphabet book should: bold type, vibrant animal illustrations, and a memorable A-to-Z animal pairing for the very youngest readers. It doesn't reinvent the genre but it executes the format cleanly and the retail presence confirms real family approval. A solid, cheerful pick for the diaper bag.
