An Unexpected Suprise

I bought this book thinking it would teach me the aleph-bet through lessons and exercises. To my suprise I found it is an alphabet book for children. But wait! I found it is helpful to learn new words, not "cat" or "dog", but complex words with wonderful pictures from the Israel Museum. This book makes a great conversation piece to set on the coffee table or anywhere else adults and children alike would pick it up. The more pages you turn the more interesting it becomes. I also like the odd shape and the fact it reads right to left (as it should).
