There's nothing like spending an afternoon building towers and bridges with blocks. On the other hand, curling up with a good book is nothing to sneeze at, either. So how about... building towers with board-book blocks! This splendid box o' blocks is filled with 26 chunky little board books (what a great idea!), one for each letter of the alphabet. Each spread of the five-page minibooks displays a word ("alligator," "ball," "car") with its corresponding tiny, adorable picture. Stacked on top of one another, these alphabetical "bricks" (just the right size for small hands) will build a fine wall of words. A sturdy 6.25-by-6.5-inch cardboard carrying case allows budding builders and bookworms to carry their literary treasure wherever they go.

Susan Estelle Kwas paints simple miniature images with enough delicate detail to measure up to demanding young eyes. Every book is a delight--building a vocabulary has never been such fun! (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
