Great for kids, hysterical for parents
A great book to learn all of the insane words of the English language. It's a great laugh too.

Proof that phonics instruction alone is not enough!
I picked up this book as an end of semester thank you gift for my professor. I think P is for Pterodactyl is a tounge in cheek alphabet book that was the perfect thing to present to a teacher of literacy. This is a must have companion to other alphabet books. When people ask, "What about phonics instruction?" This book shows why phonics is not enough. It is simply one small part of literacy instruction. Funny, unconventional, and irreverent, you'll laugh and nod along as you read from A-Z! Very nicely priced too, about what you might spend on a high quality greeting card, but this is something that really has staying power. Plus, it can be used in the college classroom as an example of the importance of a multi-faceted approach to literacy instruction.

Amazing book!
Amazing book! I think it’s a great book to help with silent letters and words that sound different. I have a pre-k and a 1st grader and they loved it!

Love the premise but not the page for O.
I bought this as a present for my niece and nephew for Christmas and absolutely loved it! However I'm very grateful that me and my husband sat down and read it before we gifted it (we did this solely to get a laugh out of the book). I was not happy to see what was on the O page about Ouija boards as I have pictured. So I took it up on myself to make my niece and nephew a different page for O in few hours we had. I went with Otters yet didnt have enough time to succeed in figuring out plenty of O words to include. We gifted the book with the new O page that I made and I got to read it to my niece last weekend actually and my page is taped over the original O page.So I loved the book and the idea behind it. However I hate the page they have for O and had God not gifted me with the ability to draw it would have been a pointless purchase as I would not have gifted it.Overall I love this book but it's important to be aware that this page is included.

Perfect
I discovered I have a new daughter of 30 years. We connected & she got sick recently. I ordered this and took her some food to help her feel better.Officially my daughter's first book with me. We were gasping for air from laughing & carrying on.Damned good book.

Funny and educational
VSauce sent me here, and I'm very excited to give this book to my friend who is expecting next month ... my only note is that it's not plastic-wrapped or sealed in any way inside the shipping box. A rainy day would've ruined it.
