Chicka Chicka Boom Boom,
by John Archambault
Recommended by: Holly Aiken of Albany, NY
-- A simple, bright, colorful book about the alphabet and a coconut tree. It has a great rhyming rhythm. I'd go with the original text - the board book is too short. My 14 month old loves this book and has learned a lot of her alphabet already from this fun to read book.
