THE ALPHABET DANCE

Title: THE ALPHABET DANCE
Author Pauline Guy
Illustrations by Jerry Pierre-Louis
ISBN 0-9753533-7-3

To read Lily's interview with Pauline Guy click HERE

Tap, tap, tap! Let the show begin! Pauline Guy and Jerry Pierre-Louis have put on a real performance with  The Alphabet Dance. Geared for ages 1 and up, the letters leap off the pages.

Solos, duets, and group dancing exploit the drama of the turning page.

Colours go to the beat of a marching band! Green A is dancing with a red apple, Red F with green Frog, Qs dance for their king and queen, ABCXYZ hop on the colourful train, U is dancing in the rain with its umbrella and Y is yo-yoing with a rainbow lollipop. And a lively chorus  sings its finale with the zebras.

Colourful contorting letters with eyes, hands and feet should captivate young audiences, thus making The Alphabet Dance a terrific educational tool.

Tykes will particularly like to colour the black and white drawings on the last two pages.         

The only negative comment I have is that  I would have liked to have seen the illustrator's name on the cover of the book along with the name of the author.
