Hide and Seek - Jazzy's Alphabet Adventure

Sonja McGiboney

Hide and Seek-Jazzy's Alphabet Adventure is a children's alphabet book. Jazzy is the star of many educational books. In this alphabet adventure, Jazzy hides her eyes, and the letters run away to hide. The text is short and simple making it easy for children to read or use context cues to figure out the words. Each letter of the alphabet is colorfully displayed in the text. The pages are illustrated with beautifully composed images from actual photographs taken by the author.


The book format is a wonderful way for teachers to have their class create their own alphabet adventure. Perhaps renaming the book Hide and Seek, and using the child's name instead of Jazzy's.

Hide and Seek with Jazzy: An Alphabet Adventure by Sonja McGiboney is a fun and educational picture book for young children. One day, a dog named Jazzy plays a game of hide and seek. But this isn't just any game of hide and seek; Jazzy is playing with the letters of the alphabet! The letters begin to hide, and Jazzy sets out to find the first letter of the alphabet, the letter A. Jazzy finds the letter A hiding in some apples, whilst the letter B is found next to a ball. With many more letters to find, and even more hiding places to discover, will you join Jazzy in the hunt to find them all? Why not start your own game of hide and seek?


Hide and Seek with Jazzy was enjoyable to read. I loved the concept of using real-life images as this will attract the attention of any young reader, as it did with me. It also helps that Jazzy is cute in every image! The author has chosen vibrant colors to make each letter of the alphabet stand out, and this will help children keep their focus on the learning part of the book. The book has the perfect balance between being both amusing and educational, and will certainly make a good boredom-breaker. There's no limit to the author's creativity in this wonderful book and I can't recommend it enough. Children will love playing with Jazzy and this will stimulate their creativity. I hope to see more of Sonja McGiboney's work soon and wish her all the best.
