Start with A: A Beginner’s Guide to the Alphabet
Start With A is a reproducible activity book for the classroom that introduces the 26 letters of the alphabet. Start With A is suitable for use with all age groups. Start With A introduces each letter individually and provides practice activities in letter formation. This is done firstly by using shadow letters, and later in the lesson by allowing students to write the letters freehand. Start With A is amply illustrated, using pictures to move from letter and word recognition toward letter and word production.

Milkman Dead was born shortly after a neighborhood eccentric hurled himself off a rooftop in a vain attempt at flight. For the rest of his life he, too, will be trying to fly. With this brilliantly imagined novel, Toni Morrison transfigures the coming-of-age story as audaciously as Saul Bellow or Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez.
