Wee Sing & Learn ABC

by Pamela Conn Beall, Yudthana Pongmee (Illustrator)

From the best-selling creators of Wee Sing(r) comes a brand-new line designed to teach elementary concepts to young kids through music and song. Each Wee Sing(r) and Learn package contains a 32-page book and a 20-minute cassette focusing on a specific concept-like numbers or colors-using a kid-friendly theme-like sea creatures or farm animals. Educators have long known that there is no better tool than music for teaching young children. Now, Pamela Conn Beall and Susan Hagen Nipp have taken their experience as elementary teachers and matched it with the same musical sensibilities that have charmed and delighted both kids and their parents for almost 25 years.

Kids will find the pictures of these furry friends playing instruments simply hilarious. Picture a camel playing a clarinet and a squirrel on the sax. In the illustration, the letters will be pictured in both upper and lower case. On the tape, the letters will be spoken and the instrument played, while an infectious melody anchors the concept firmly in the child's mind.
