Discover the charm of 'Alpha Buddies Land' by Donna Marie Rink. A vibrant and creative children's book that introduces the alphabet in a truly fun and engaging way. Kids are sure to appreciate the colorful diagrams and the easy-to-understand words. Congratulations on being BOTD!

I wrote a review on Amazon as well.

Colorful detailed images accompany the poetic phrases. Children can point out the objects spoken of in the story.

Some of the lines are hard to read or interpret to children just learning these words.
As a new parent I know I'll be reading their favorites every night and I don't think this book would make it.

The pattern of 'Adjective, Name, and Action's misses the mark.
Capitalizing every word with associated letter is an 'adorable art flaw' and makes it hard to distinguish Names from verbs, and Objects from adjectives.
Spelling error depending on word use: as an adjective it's Cutie-pie. As an adverb or object its Cutie pie.
Name error: Dog Dots or Dog named Dots?
Horse named Hero
Kitten named Kitty
Monkey named Mario and so on.
Golfing items aren't g-words.
...'Ice cream cone and looking' the and makes it a complete sentence.
...'telling Jokes while playing'
'Nut friends' is vague not descriptors like the book pattern. Try PeaNut or acorn Nut.
Parrot named Polly find pineapple by (not under) the Palm tree. Under sounds like pineapples fall from palm trees.
Q-tee? Doesn't follow (adjective, name, action) pattern.
Tee? Not Tee T? Doesn't follow name pattern.
Tigers named Theo and Tara doesn't follow sounds pattern by using the 'Th' instead of 'Tuh' and throws off pattern.
Ulla U is a hard name to pronounce for English and non-native English speakers. 'You-la?' 'Oo-ya?' 'You'll-ya?'
Spelling error: X-ray not X Ray
"Yellow" Yi, Yak named Yolanda
Spelling error: Zigzagging is one word or hyphenated, not two words.

The breathy review on the back of the book would make any parent cringe and maybe not buy the book!
Paraphrase key-words with big bold text!
Get the key points of the story across in short lines to match the pattern of the story inside. That way parents know how the story will read.
More often children's books are wrapped in plastic and you can't open and read a page without buying.

Very colorful and fun for young children. Easy learning while having fun is the best! Recommended to friends with young children- I’m sure they would love it.

Based on the snippet of the book that I read, I believe this is an excellent teaching tool for the younguns. And the drawings are beautifully done. Congrats to Ms. Rink on her accomplishment.

The tiny tots will enjoy learning paired with fun, colourful diagrams and adventure. It is nice how the reviewer mentioned the age range.

[Kathie Slief Turner]

Having read through the book, I see that this review is accurate, with descriptions that are very informative. The book does have colorful artwork that would be fun for children just learning the alphabet. Each letter of the alphabet has its own little story as the reviewer describes, and each explanation has several items that begin with that letter. Reading the review after I read the book, I liked the suggestion that it would be appropriate for ages 2-4. Nice review with lots of descriptive elements that could make one decide whether to get this book for their child.

Well done for this review. A colorful book for children is quite a catch. It will be good read for children as they are especially drawn to colors and objects.

[Carina Callegaro]

Alpha Buddies Land is creatively written, I enjoyed the rhymes and context of the book. I like the images throughout the book, it's a great way to make reading fun for children. Thanks for your review, I believe it connects beautifully with the context of the book itself.

A nice pictureful children's book "Alpha Buddies Land" by Donna Marie Rink, which could help our kids to learn letters in the form of Alpha A and Buddy B. This is a very helpful book for kids.

[Hazel Arnaiz]

Alphabets come to life in this picture book for toddlers and preschoolers. It differs from standard ABC books, which just include a list of words and illustrations. Weaving the examples into the story helps kids recall the words and makes learning them more fun.

[Elizabeth McNutt]

This review shows how attractive a beginning reader book can be. Colors are used as well as catchy rhymes. The story will be enjoyed by many children and their reading partners.

[Rose Nafula Oketch]

Congratulations, Alpha Buddies Land, on being BOTD! The creative use of words, coloured letters, and pictures of cartoons will improve and make learning the alphabet easy for children. An interesting book for children to read.

[Chimdik Chimezi]

Alpha Buddies Land" by Donna Marie Rink is an interesting book written to teach children about the English Alphabets. I recommend this to all children.

[Ajibola Gabriel]

Adventure books for kids are great. Kids love anything that excited their creative juices.
