A marvellous read, my daughter really enjoyed this.
A lovely, fun, charming and educational book, a must for every young child. The illustrations are delightful and appealing. Ten out of ten for the author of this book.
This book is a pure delight to read and a wonderful introduction to the alphabet for any child. Its uncomplicated and direct associations to the alphabet will be a fantastic learning tool for any child to enable them to quickly memorize the alphabet which is so important to the understanding of the written word. I am absolutely sure its colourful layout and alphabet characters would encourage any child to read this book again and again. I would highly recommend this book to any parent as an introduction to educate their child in their literary skills.
I read this book to a class of 4/5 year old. The pictures were colourful and bright. The story was easy to follow and maintained interest throughout. I would definitely recommend this book .
A delightful story and easy to follow. My 4 year old Grandson loves it, very educational.
Terrific book for the grand kids. Just loved it!
Colourful alphabet characters with all vowels in red, (a great idea by the author) and a lovely storyline set in rhyme. I really enjoyed reading this book to my 3yr old niece.
Loved this bright an colourful book. Good to look at and educational too. A fun way to teach children the alphabet.
This is a lovely children’s book and we were lucky enough to have author Sue Sibbons visit my son’s kindergarten to do a reading which the children loved! Thanks Sue!
A wonderful and engaging book, the illustrations are bright with the alphabet characters being very appealing. The Vowels are all the same colour. A clever idea to assist young children with their learning.
The Alphabet Picnic is a great book for the grandchildren to learn and to enjoy learning the alphabet. Very well illustrated. I have 10 grandchildren so I have plenty of experience in early learning.

Extremely engaging book for our young readers learning their alphabet. It keeps them interested with the bright colours and pictures. My nephews keep going back to the same book every night to read and practice their sounds! A lovely fun way to learn
I brought this book for my niece and nephew, they simply love it! Its a very clear, bright and colourful book that they insist I read with them every time I visit. Alphabet Picnic is a must purchase and i'd highly recommend it as a stocking filler for any young readers. Its an excellent educational aid set within an engaging story with excellent illustrations. We shall look forward to the writers next scribe!
What a delightful book, the author truly knows her audience! It is colourful, fun and educational - a fantastic way to learn the alphabet. Definitely one for the Christmas stocking this year!
Bought this book for my grand children. Absolutely loved it. Mum hasn’t stopped reading it so I’m told nightly! Would recommend this book to anyone from a very early age! Thankyou Sue for an awesome book.

A wonderful read, not just as an educational tool but as a bedtime story - not too long, playfully written with easy on the eye illustrations.
Looking forward to this authors next book.

An interactive and creative way for young children to learn. This book is such an enjoyment for young children, as they get captivated and interested at every turn of the page. Bravo to the Author in creating this exceptional book.
I bought this book for our son Travis. He just loved it! It's not to heavy and short enough to keep him engaged, a delightful read. The colourful illustrations enhance this educational book. Can't wait for the next instalment from first time author Sue Sibbons.
This book is just fabulous, my daughter absolutely loves it! It's a beautifully written story using all the letters of the alphabet. It also has educational rhyming throughout as well as having all the vowels highlighted at the end of the book. The illustrations are beautifully done and lots of fun, we love it!

It's the ideal gift for any young child learning the alphabet.

Sue's book is so bright, cheerful and engaging - I bought it as a gift for my grandson and he loves it! Sue's experience with and understanding of children shines through. I highly recommend this book.
My kids love The Alphabet Picnic - especially my preschooler who is learning her letters in preparation for school next year. My 6 year old can now read the book and my 2 year old loves the vibrant pictures and the rhythm of the story as it unfolds. A great book!
What a great, colourful book for children to learn their alphabet!!! Our Pre-school children thoroughly love this book. They are learning all the letters while looking at the wonderful pictures of the beach, ocean and delicious food!
What a beautiful children’s book. The pictures and the story line is magnificent and the children at our centres really loved listening to this story and looking at the colourful illustrations. Thankyou to Mrs Sue Gibbons for taking the time to read her story to our children at Chantel’s kindergarten Sylvania and Mena. We would love to have you back soon!
