Rilla Alexander's high impact but always whimsical images of the activities, tools, and toys a child encounters everyday are the perfect match to accompany the individually die cut letters of the label. There's a bonus of related fun-to-use 'conversation starter' words to encourage a playful exploration of more complex language and sentences.
