An ABC of Pirates

This is a fun alphabet book with a theme of pirates. Each letter has its own page with a pirate scene depicting the letter. The illustrations remind me of the Rugrats characters. I like how each letter is in its own box since there is a lot going on in the pictures! The letter has a rhyme to go with it and the letter, word and following words with the showcased letter bolded. “H is for hunting for gold and buried treasure, ship ahoy, me hearties! We’ll plunder at our leisure.” At the end of the book, there is an I Spy type set up. Each letter has a list of things to find on that letter page that starts with the letter A for example. I really liked this! There is also a glossary of words that students may not be familiar with.
