THE LETTERS ARE LOST<br />
“An alphabet book that does far more<br />
than provide practice in matching letters<br />
with initial sounds. ernst stimulates children<br />
to extend their discoveries<br />
about letters and sounds into AbC books<br />
of their own devising. Pedagogically<br />
invaluable and worth adding to even the<br />
most extensive collection of alphabet<br />
materials.” —Kirkus<br />

animals in a meadow. In her eagerness<br />
