"I wrote ABC POETRY to entertain the adult as well as the child, making this a definite "read-to-me" (or, "with-me") book. Most ABC books are very simple in their approach to teaching letter sounds, ie. "A is for apple, B is for baby." It is my belief that the very best way to teach the sounds the letters make is through alliteration - the repitition of the same sound over and over again. In the "S" poem, for instance, there are more than 120 s's!
In ABC POETRY there are subtle nuances, puns, witticisms and uncommon words to share - which is why I have included a glossary at the end. "

The sisi and the sole
Resided there below the surge
Swimming to and fro."
