"Alphie And The Alphabets is irresistible to children and even parents will smile at the sophisticated lyrics. I'm thrilled by the inclusion of the "twofer" characters, an example of the brilliant way this program develops children's phonemic awareness."-- Kate Maxwell, Outreach Coordinator, Star Learning Center

"The repeated use of these catchy Alphie songs and phonic lyrics is extremely helpful for emergent readers on various levels." -- Joan Freedman, Reading Tutor

"As soon as my daughter comes home from nursery school, she asks for the Alphie CD and the book. She sings along with the characters for more than an hour every day. Her favorite characters are Dizzy Duck and Busy Bird."
-- William Rodriguez (father of four-year-old)

"Alphie And The Alphabets" has quickly become my six-year-olds favorite CD. Instead of running away when I ask him to sound out a word , Philip now reads out the letters and delightedly sings the song associated with each. My ten-year-old often joins us when we're singing along with the characters, and he has his own strongly-held views about which letter is the cutest, whose song is the best, etc. In short, it's great, and we're all big fans. Now if I could just stop humming 'Y twirls a yo-yo' in the office." -- Laura Goldin, (mother of 2 children)

"Alphie And The Alphabets is just what young mothers are looking for. It's perfect for my five-year-old son, Liam." -- Karin Title (mother two children)

"We enjoy dancing to the music…My daughter is teaching the songs to all of her friends." -- Mary D. (mother of six-year-old)
 

"Alphie And The Alphabets by Alayne Sayles is a delightful reading program for beginners. It covers a range of early childhood grade levels, using a well-balanced approach of phonics and whole language. The first section is ideal for pre-k and kindergarten; the second and third sections are appropriate for kindergarden and first grade. It is also useful for second grade for review purposes. I highly recommend Alphie And The Alphabets for young children, especially for those in diverse linguistic households." --Irene Wernick, M.S.
(Elementary School Teacher)

"I think that Alphie is like the conductor who is making all the people sing about each letter of the alphabet...You use the Alphie program by looking at the words. The song helps you read the words. My favorites are M, A, R, Y, and I also like L, W, S, T, V, Z and X." -- Maryam Chishti (six-year old Alphie learner)
