Letter Names and Alphabet Book Reading by Senior Kindergarteners: An Eye Movement Study
The study monitored the eye movements of twenty 5-year-old children while reading an alphabet book to examine the manner in which the letters, words, and pictures were fixated and the relation of attention to print to alphabetic knowledge. Children attended little to the print, took longer to first fixate print than illustrations, and labeled fewer letters than when presented with letters in isolation. After controlling for receptive vocabulary, regressions revealed that children knowing more letters were quicker to look at the featured letter on a page and spent more time looking at the featured letter, the word, and its first letter. Thus, alphabet books along with letter knowledge may facilitate entrance into the partial alphabetic stage of word recognition.

Book
Jeanie Conan’s
A copy of an unpublished manuscript of a children’s alphabet book that was written and illustrated by an Irish artist, Jeanie Conan, in 1901, has been released by the Osborne Collection of Early Children’s Books. Conan made the book while visiting Nottingham Road in the South African KwaZulu-Natal Midlands. It illustrates life and scenes at her host’s home, and also has three pages referring to the Anglo-Boer War in which she quotes “Uncle Arthur,” who may have been her brother or her relative Arthur Conan Doyle. It is one of several alphabet books that referred to the war. Conan’s are the first recorded children’s verses in English written in South Africa. Two other South African children’s writers lived in the Midlands around the same time: Nellie Fincher, author of a notable children’s story set in the Midlands, and Edith King, author of the first published book of South African English children’s poetry.
