For fans of P is for Pterodactyl comes this groundbreaking spin on the ABC's from an acclaimed, bestselling author and artist pairing!

Here's a totally twisted take on the alphabet that invites readers 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 two bestselling masters of wordplay and visual high jinks 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!

 


The Alphabet's Alphabet is a charmingly funny and surprisingly sweet picture book that asks little readers to look at the alphabet in a fun , new way!

Like a family, the letters in the alphabet are more alike than you think, while still retaining their own unique flairs, and author Chris Harris and illustrator Dan Santat explore this theme with silly humor, bright imagination, and wonderful heart. Little readers will enjoy the clever rhymes and sparse text, while delighting in the engaging illustrations, so full of colorful details and laugh-out-loud scenes.

The dynamic duo of Harris and Santat offer readers a fantastically fun and unforgettable alphabet book!
