More DescriptionLITERACY and LOVE come together in this ABC picture book. The shared moments between mother and child are both timeless and boundless as portrayed in the illustrations. Mamas and babies rock through the alphabet in sweet rhyming verse and provide a familiar context in which children can not only relate but find comfort. Rock through the upper case letters, then through the lower case letters to a sleepy finale. The predictable phrases and rhyming words are important strategies for developing phonological awareness in young children, an important skill for developing early literacy. Multi-cultural illustrations and carefully selected words not only entertain but engage children in learning about the alphabet, families, and cultural awareness.
