Atlanta, GA – What if learning the alphabet could feel like an adventure—and sound like one, too? In Listen ‘n’ Learn Sound Stories, Ellen Hajek invites young readers (and their grown-ups) into a world where each letter of the alphabet becomes a whimsical journey packed with laughter, curiosity, and connection. Beautifully illustrated by Donita Milleson and lovingly published by Authors Tranquility Press, this unique early literacy resource is now available on Amazon in print and eBook formats.
A Story for Every Sound, A Smile on Every Page

Designed for ages K–2, these 26 imaginative stories— one for each letter of the alphabet—are meant to be read aloud by parents or teachers, helping children develop listening skills and master key phonics through humor, rhythm, and repetition. Each tale features delightful characters like Annie who has “too many pancakes,” Bobby who wants his basketball to “talk,” or Casey, the curious cat who gets locked in a closet—all while teaching foundational sound patterns.
But that’s not all. Each story is followed by interactive questions and playful activities, such as acting out rhyming games, mimicking sounds, and drawing associated objects—ensuring kids not only listen and laugh, but learn and engage.
