Alphabetically Speaking Carol Joy Cook

Curious and imaginative kids and a language-loving mom magically came together to invent an alphabet game that you and your kids can enjoy, too. It's creative, simple, and endlessly entertaining. Here's how it works. Call out a letter, and your child answers with a word that begins with that letter. But then, they have to make up a sentence using that word. For example, Mom says: "C" and the child responds: "C: Convertible. I would like to have a convertible like Daddy's friend has-a car where the top goes down." It can work in reverse, too, so you can teach new words to your kids and then make up a sentence to demonstrate usage and context . . . just as the author does in this book. Just as you learn about your kids from their word choices, they learn about you from yours. Educational, personal, and delightful, this book shows you an ideal way to build word power while having a great time!
