Reach for this book when you want to captivate a child who has a naturally inquisitive mind and a love for deep, visual exploration.

It is the perfect choice for a rainy afternoon or a quiet bedtime when you want to transition from high energy to focused, creative thinking. Each page features a lush, surreal illustration centered around a single letter of the alphabet, accompanied by intricate alliterative phrases.
