A book that I have used in my classroom is Alphabet Under
Construction by Denise Fleming same author as Lunch! this
uses book lowercase and uppercase (ex: nails the N, okays the
O). Its a fun silly book. Other books that I have used to
teach letters and sounds:
Alphabet rescue
Dog's ABC: A silly Story
The Ocean alphabet book
and the Dr.Seuss ABC books (like A if for Apple). Hope this
helps :)
