My daughter loves Elmo and out of the 3 Elmo books we currently have I think this one may be her least favorite. She’s 1yo and I think this one may be a bit too wordy for her. She listens but doesn’t seem as interested as she is when I read Elmo Says or Elmo Loves You. I may keep it in our collection for later use.

A cute little tour of the alphabet led by Elmo but lots of muppets make cameos.

Very annoying indecisiveness.

This was a very basic Elmo ABC book. Covers everything in a cute, captivating, and clear way. I would use if i were teaching very young students or possibly second language learners.

Synopsis: "Elmo the little monster cannot decide which is his favorite letter of the alphabet, because he has favorite things for almost every letter."


My Review: Why haven't I seen more books like this?! They make tons of cards with music and this book used the same concept. Granted Elmo just says a brief line about loving ABCs but it still totally lit up Munchkin's world. The story was simple and goes through the letters trying to find Elmo's favorite but every letter stands for something he loves.

Between 3 and 4 stars. Salo really likes it. I would like the letters to be larger or brighter or something. Each letter appears by itself, within the text, twice in a color other than black. It just doesn't stand out to a toddler learning letters. Better for an older child that already has some familiarity with letters.

Elmo's ABC Book is an ABC book written by Sarah Albee. This is a very simple ABC book for children that are first learning their ABC's. The children gain interest in this book because it is about Elmo from Sesame Street. This is a great book for beginners. It is very simple but also very catchy. I will use this book when I first introduce the ABC's to my classroom.

Nowhere near as good as the movie. Skip this gobbler.

[Leah]

They like this book. it's not their favorite though.

[Lisa · Rating 1 out of 5]

W, X, and Y was glossed over in this book. Not included!
E for Elmo? Seems like Elmo is conceded.
This book is just no good.

[Ella Zig · Rating 2 out of 5]

o.k. nothing special

[Dmills]

Elmo is also a great Sesame Street character that I loved as a child and really helped me learn quite a bit as a child and I think it could be just as beneficial today.

Elmo learns the alphbet. A.R.

[Alexis Dowdell · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is an excellent tool for the children who are currently trying to learn their ABCs.

[Sadija Zizic]

This book would be great to read to younger students because young children love Elmo. In the book, Elmo cannot decide which is his favorite letter of the alphabet, because he has favorite things about every letter. After reading the book to my students, we could have a discussion about what their favorite letter is and why.
