3rd Edition August 2021

Hi, I am Thomas the Tank Engine.

Did you know that the letter "T" is one of the most used letters in the English alphabet?

In fact, it is the 6th most used letter.

(E is the most used)

We are going to show you pictures of things that have "T" as the first letter.

See how many you can name!!!

You will find the answers at the end of the book.

This animal hunts, this one you cuddle, some of these go chug, and one is home to birds.

This bird gobbles, this reptile moves slowly, this we eat on salads, and this goes well with jelly or jam.

Where we sleep when camping, another goes around a neck, this one comes after 9, and this is where we eat our meals.

These show when we smile, we use these to dry after swimming, Native Americans use one, and one is very big and scary!

One you stick out for the doctor and say, "aaaahhhh," another is one you wear, the others hold a drink that many people enjoy. (especially in England)

Here we have a hairy spider, food to eat; one is what a farmer drives, and finally, something you can ride.

We like to eat these, one is on a box of breakfast cereal, one lives in a tree, and one lives on the ground (some say it gives you warts - yuck!)

Here there is a kind of turtle; another is a strong wind, and then two books to compare.

Here we have two kinds of fish: one saltwater and one freshwater, one small bird that is cute and friendly, and someone who would eat them all!

Here is a place to play, something we use to cover a table when we eat, a vehicle that helps us travel in the city, and a device to look at the stars.
