An alphabet of riddles

This book features 26 short riddles where the key words are never named explicitly. Instead, they are described with rhyming pictures and shown in the pictures. Some of the clues are obvious, and others will cause even adults to pause and think a bit. The blurb on the cover says "Each letter has a poem. Every poem has a clue. The answers are in the back." There are no scary parts in the book. The book has about 600 words.

With full color, impressionistic-style illustrations

Lesa Cline-Ransome's Quilt Alphabet is a children's alphabet book with full color, impressionistic-style illustrations. In addition to the eye-catching pictures, each page has a short, memorable rhyme about an alphabet letter. The final page shows all twenty-six letters, each with a corresponding sample word, so as to better impress the alphabet in young minds just learning to read. An excellent early learning book.
