Happy Birthday, America by Mary Pope Osborne


This was another book chosen in haste at the library. When we first started to read it last night, I was worried because it didn't seem to have too many words that started with A. However, my fears quickly abated and we enjoyed the book. For one thing, the subject matter and pictures are fun--all things you would do on the Fourth of July. Parades, picnics, fireworks, dogs, balloons--all very appealing to toddlers. And the fact that there weren't many words that started with A was okay, because it helped us to focus on looking for "little As," as I'm calling the lowercase version. I'd definitely recommend this one.
