Amazing Illustrations

A fantastic book, wonderful illustrations, and lots of items to search for while learning the alphabet with your child. A book that can be read over and over again, year after year.

A masterpiece umong childrens literary works.

Growing up in Canada and in this area where these pictures in the book were painted bring back fond memories of my childhood and reading and discussing this book with my kids gave them a better understanding of how the alphabet can be understood, and that there is alot more to our alphabet than we think. This is a great way to extend their knowledge to be more aware of various types of trees, wildlife, flowers, etc... This book is a masterpiece and should be added to everyone's book collection.

Alliteration sentences and mountain picture for each letter.

Each page has a beautiful, realistic picture with a sentence of alliterations for the letter. Each picture also has a hidden letter, making the book challenging, informative and fun.
