这是一本朗朗上口，韵律十足，自然拼读好教材！

字母是英语的书写符号。在学习初期，字母学习是很重要的一环，不要强迫孩子以不断重复的书写、无意义的背诵记忆作为开始，因为乏味的字母教学，非常容易让孩子产生“英语难学沉闷”的偏见。

相反，如果从杰出作家精心编写的字母书开始，可以培养孩子对英语的好奇和学习的信心。更重要的是，这是一本美式英文自然发音启蒙书，精炼生动的简单文字，很容易让孩子认识到字母与声音的关联，才是字母学习的初衷。

Alligators All Around Board Book《小鳄鱼学字母》是一本字母认知书，从A-Z，每页一个字母，用同一字母开头的趣味英文短语，带领孩子展开英文字母的认知。

B:bursting balloons（戳气球，bursting和ballons都以字母B开头）

C:catching colds（患感冒，catching和colds都以字母C开头）

书中同一字母开头的单子的挑选和短语和组合格外精妙，妙趣横生。

Alligators All Around, along with the other three classic Nutshell Library titles (Chicken Soup with Rice, One Was Johnny, and Pierre), is the first board book edition of Maurice Sendak’s original work! You loved Nutshell Library as a miniature collection, and these large board books will make it even easier for children to share with their grown-up readers.
From A to Zippity zound, Alligators All Around has made learning the ABCs fun for over fifty years. The combination of Maurice Sendak’s signature humor and artwork creates all-around irresistible alphabet fun.

Maurice Sendaks childrens books have sold over 30 million copies and have been translated into more than 40 languages. He received the 1964 Caldecott Medal for Where the Wild Things Are and is the creator of such classics as In the Night Kitchen, Outside Over There, Higglety Pigglety Pop!, and Nutshell Library. In 1970 he received the international Hans Christian Andersen Medal for Illustration, in 1983 he received the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award from the American Library Association, and in 1996 he received a National Medal of Arts in recognition of his contribution to the arts in America.
