Summary

For fans of P is for Pterodactyl comes this groundbreaking spin on the ABCs from an acclaimed best-selling author!

Here's a totally twisted take on the alphabet that invites listeners 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 a best-selling master of wordplay comes a mind-bending riddle of delightful doppelgängers and surprising disguises that reveal we're more alike than we may think. You'll never look at the alphabet the same way again!

Critic reviews

"...an amusing, imaginative excursion...it prods readers - especially those new to reading and writing - to visualize similarities between the symbols. Harris's versifying nails rhyme and meter...." (Publishers Weekly)

"The tongue-in-cheek rhyming text is engaging and will be appreciated by youngsters." (Booklist)

"Recommended for fans of wordplay and other pun-filled alphabet books such as Tom Lichtenheld's E-mergency!" (Horn Book)
