The Fireside Picture Alphabet
English
Read book »
With words like ablution, obstinance, and sluggard, this book from 1858 isn't your typical alphabet book. The giant red letters and intriguing text (U and V stand for Uncommon Vegetation) make it fun to read so don't be a sluggard and get started!
Baseball ABC
English
Read book »
This colorful and fun book from 1885 teaches the alphabet and the basics of baseball at the same time! Most letters fare well except for K (Karl) who so quickly gets out and M (Muff) who cannot catch at all.
A Apple Pie
Written by Kate Greenaway; English
Read book »
I really enjoyed this short and entertaining alphabet book. It tells the story of an apple pie and the great lengths some people took to have a taste of it. The original text was printed on linen in 1899.
