These unique board books bring the popular Montessori pedagogy to trade book form for the first time. Using materials and methods common to Montessori classrooms, these interactive board books immerse young children in an aesthetically rich learning experience, while providing parents and caregivers with carefully crafted language to encourage understanding.
In Montessori classrooms, students learn to write before they learn to read, so the process is driven by their own words and thoughts before those of others. Letters are taught first as sounds (instead of names), and alphabet tiles encourage children to trace each letter with their fingers. This book honors that tradition by emulating the standard classroom material with touchable, traceable letters and beautiful colors that evoke the elegant simplicity of the Montessori aesthetic.

Praise for Montessori: Letter Work
"The combination of phonetics and simple retro illustration makes for an excellent entree into pre-literacy."
- The Wall Street Journal

Parents without good phonic knowledge may not be aware of this

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 November 2017

Verified Purchase

It's an American publication so unfortunately all the vowel phonic sounds are with the American pronunciation. Parents without good phonic knowledge may not be aware of this. I expected the textures to be more raised. However it is good value for money and it's a good size book.

Beautiful book to introduce letters

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 May 2019

Verified Purchase

Well created and sturdy book for little hands (only that it wasn’t arranged to the usual abc’s as my 2 year old would sing the song at the end as he rounds up all the letters). It even caught the attention of my 6 years old boy who can already write but may still occasionally invert some letters like the “j, z and s”, and saw him tracing the textured letters with his fingers.

Really helped my son who was struggling so much

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 October 2019

Verified Purchase

Same as my review for the numberwork-This was on my wish list for years but i never bought until my son was really not showing interest in letters or numbers and I started to panic about him struggling in school. Along with activity books its been great for showing him the letters he needs to spell his name and he does actually trace the shape with his fingers. So glad I bought!

Don't waste your money

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 February 2018

If you have sandpaper letters don't bother with this book as it lacks the quality you'd expect from the price. The letters are not coarse enough and the pictures are dull. Not worth the price.

not worth the money; was expecting more of a sensory experience but essentially it's just pictures on a page - hardly anything to "feel" at all.
