review 1: I am a fan of Oliver Jeffers wonderful books. This book is no exception. It is a clever alphabet story where each one of the letters in the alphabet has a story to tell with creative rhyme, fun facts and hilarious endings. There are great connections throughout the story and I can see that my students will enjoy finding awesome nuggets of humor throughout. My favorite story is "O is for Onward"!
review 2: This was quintessential Oliver Jeffers. I love that characters from his previous books even make an appearance here.Each letter of the alphabet gets its own short story here. Each is no more than a few paragraphs long. It's dry wit will appeal to adults but the goofiness will appeal to kids.This would not work too well as a large group read aloud, but wou... moreld be great for sharing one on one. less
