A Is for Azure: The Alphabet in Colors
Brilliant ink-on-tile illustrations created with a secret process bring the alphabet to colorful life.
Children will delight in the rich, poetic language of colors like emerald, jasmine, and quartz—while also meeting old favorites like yellow, orange and purple.
A color key and pronunciation guide (for new colors like "zaffre," which rhymes with "laugher") is included. Instructions for how to extend the learning with a predictable sentence chart are also provided.
Supporting materials like miniature printables of the illustrations, plus sentence builders, can be found at tweetspeakpoetry.com/literacyextras!
