My First ABC

My First ABC is a delightful introduction to the alphabet, featuring Shirley Hughes's iconic characters, Katie and her baby brother, Olly. Each letter is presented through an everyday object or activity that young children will easily recognize, such as 'L for the leaves' or 'V for the vacuum cleaner.' The book gently guides children through both upper and lowercase letters, culminating in a full alphabet spread at the end. It's a warm, engaging way to build early literacy skills and vocabulary, perfect for sharing quiet moments with a child.

K is for Katie and O is for her baby brother, Olly, as Shirley Hughes’s beloved pair introduce ABCs in everyday settings that little ones will recognize. From airplanes high in the sky to zzzzz for sleepy time, Katie and Olly’s daily pastimes offer plenty of ways to learn their letters. There’s L for the leaves you can wade through when they fall from the trees, P for the play-group where it’s fun to jump on big cushions, and V for the vacuum cleaner that vroom-vroom-vrooms when Dad cleans the carpet. Narrated in Katie’s voice and depicting the simple pleasures of a familiar world, My First ABC shows both upper- and lowercase letters and ends with an alphabet on the final spread illustrated with an alternate set of images.
