The Alphabet Room
by Sara Pinto
Starting with the simplest images-apples for A, bowls for B, cat for
C-Sara Pinto has taken a magical leap in the concept of alphabet books.
Each letter has a door, and behind each door the objects arrange and
rearrange themselves so that with every letter the picture becomes more
complex. Letter by letter, magical scenes unfold inside the room. With
gentle humor and charming design, this lift-the-flap alphabet book
transcends the genre to offer something truly unique. |

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom
by Jr, Bill Martin, John Archambault, Lois Ehlert
In this bright and lively rhyme, the letters of the alphabet race each
other to the top of the coconut tree. When X, Y and Z finally scramble
up the trunk, however, the weight is too much, and down they all tumble
in a colorful chaotic heap: "Chicka Chicka . . . BOOM! BOOM!" All the
family members race to help, as one by one the letters recover in
amusingly battered fashion. Poor stubbed toe E has a swollen appendage,
while F sports a jaunty Band-Aid and P is indeed black-eyed. As the
tropic sun goes down and a radiant full moon appears, indomitable A
leaps out of bed, double-daring his colleagues to another treetop race. |

Alphabet City
by Stephen T. Johnson
Beginning with the A formed by a construction site's sawhorse and ending
with the Z found in the angle of a fire escape, Johnson draws viewers'
eyes to tiny details within everyday objects to find letters. In this
wordless tour of sights from Times Square to the Brooklyn Bridge, he
invites young and old alike to take a new look at familiar surroundings,
discovering the alphabet without ever looking in a book or reading from
a sign. |
