Publisher Description
Alliterative and rhyming words of wisdom surrounded by all new art fill this energetic alphabet book by Dallas Clayton. Bursting with color and life, each spread offers a rhythmic phrase and an abundance of artwork illustrating the featured letter. The message of dreaming big and living life to its fullest permeates every page, inviting readers to "learn some new letters that you can use to make magical words and share big ideas."
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In keeping with the irreverently inspirational attitude of his previous work, Clayton provides an alphabet of affirmations ("A is for awesome/ and also amazin'/ B is for beautiful/ big bold and brazen") while animals and objects that begin with each letter hover around the words. The phrases occasionally dip into greeting-card territory ("K is for kids being kids/ (that's the coolest)/ L is for living life/ up to its fullest"), but the big, furry-looking font and playful miniature images, along with lines like "S is for sailing/ in all seven seas/ T is for talking/ and teaching and trees" lend Clayton's work a Haight-Ashbury vibe that should gel with free-spirited kids. Ages 3 7.
