For fans of P is for Pterodactyl comes this groundbreaking spin on the ABCs from an acclaimed bestselling author and artist duo!
Here's a totally twisted take on the alphabet that invites readers to look at it in a whole new way: An A is an H that just won't stand up right, a B is a D with its belt on too tight, and a Z is an L in a tug-of-war fight! Twenty-six letters, unique from each other -- and yet, every letter looks just like one another! Kind of like...one big family.
From two bestselling masters of wordplay and visual high jinks comes a mind-bending riddle of delightful doppelgรคngers and surprising disguises that reveal we're more alike than we may think. You'll never look at the alphabet the same way again!

Reviews

"The tongue-in-cheek rhyming text is engaging and will be appreciated by youngsters."โ€”Booklist "The collaboration produces an amusing, imaginative excursion, and it prods readers -- especially those new to reading and writing -- to visualize similarities between the symbols. Harris's versifying nails rhyme and meter, and Santat's endless stream of energy delivers on over-the-top gag after another."โ€”Publishers Weekly "With over-the-top creativity, Santat's illustrations use a soft colored palette of secondary colors. For use in preschools or alphabet-themed story times, this funny and creative ABC book will delight children and adults alike."โ€”School Library Journal "Recommended for fans of wordplay and other pun-filled alphabet books such as Tom Lichtenheld's E-mergency!"โ€”Horn Book Expand reviews
