Critic Reviews

"Each letter of the alphabet gets fresh and fancy in this primer from typography guru Hische...A charmingly illustrated and designed work."—Kirkus

"This is a book that is meant to be read out loud and shared so listeners can admire the metaphoric drawings...For schools or libraries needing a readaloud alphabet book, this is for children who already know their letters."—School Library Jounal
