Little Gestalten Alphabetics

From Atticus, the altruistic astronaut, to Zooey, the zonked zombie, this book revamps the ABCs.

C is for cat? D is for dog? Not in this book! Here, Colossal Cornelius captures his companions with his camera, and Daisy the diver dares a death-defying dip with dinosaurs. In Alphabetics, each of the alphabet’s twenty-six letters is depicted with an awesome alliteration—not to mention an illuminating illustration—that will captivate and stimulate young minds. Although the lettered tales are meant to be humorous and fun, they also serve a commendable purpose. Complex words are introduced to expand children’s vocabularies and linguistic horizons. The book includes a glossary so that readers can look up any terms that are unfamiliar to them.
