Rocky Mountain ABCs [Board Book]

By Jocey Asnong

Book Overview

Durable board-book alphabet adventure introduces letters through mountain animals, outdoor activities and recognizable Canadian Rockies landscapes.

Children's illustrator Jocey Asnong brings the alphabet into the mountains in Rocky Mountain ABCs. Each letter becomes part of a playful outdoor scene featuring wildlife, recreation and the landscapes of western Canada.

Young readers can canoe at sunset on Lake Louise, climb snowy peaks alongside a mountain goat and learn to ski with an adventurous grizzly bear. Asnong's illustrations connect letter recognition with animals and places that children can identify and remember, giving the book value both as an early-literacy tool and as an introduction to the Canadian Rockies. The repeated association between letters, wildlife and outdoor activities gives adults several natural prompts for shared reading.

The sturdy board-book format is designed for toddlers, preschoolers and repeated family reading. Its combination of alphabet learning, mountain wildlife and outdoor adventure makes it useful for early-literacy collections, regional children's sections and Canadian Rockies gift displays.
