PreS-Gr 1–Hische, a lettering artist, has paired a descriptive word with her bold and vibrant majuscule letters and simplified miniscule letters, all with simple cartoon faces. This is a book that is meant to be read out loud and shared so listeners can admire the metaphoric drawings of the capitals, the small letter sidekick, and the details included with the drawings—the letter H is red hot puffy letter, the letter I is a block of ice with icicles. Some of the drawings are not as easy to decipher. As an example, the A for athletic appears on a varsity jacket. Another example is Q for Quilt, featuring a letter that is, unfortunately, not round, but a square.
VERDICT An additional purchase for schools or libraries needing a read-aloud alphabet book, this is for children who already know their letters.
