      I really like that Alternative ABC’s book best, but I think my son would adore the Charlie Harper peg puzzle (http://www.ammobooks.com/books/harperpegpuzzle/). The animals are so colorful!

      Kids these days are so different from kids 10 years ago, even 5 years ago! I was so amazed at how my 3year old son is able to manipulate the laptop, shut it down and lock it as well (on his own!). So, I am all for this alternative ABC’s. With the rapid development of our technology, this will perfectly help toddlers and learn more things. This will make ABC’s super interesting, I am sure! This book is brilliant! I am sure to purchase one for my son!

      Cute rockin’ book! I imagine someone like Gwen Stefani has this for her kids :)

      The Locals Only by Hugh Holland book looks interesting and the illustrations in The Red Shoes by Sun Young Yoo / Gloria Fowler look amazing.
