Editorial Reviews

"A is for alligator," but don't worry about this critter -- with its gently rounded shape and wide eyes -- scaring your little one. In fact, all the animals in this sturdy board book, each representing a letter of the alphabet, serve as friendly representatives of their species. Acrylic-and-ink paintings on a grainy wood background create a handsome, vintage look, and telltale features (like big beaver teeth) help young children easily grasp the creatures' differences. (Ages Birth to 2)

 Seattle Magazine
“This sturdy tome with vintage-inspired aesthetic does double duty as an alphabet primer and baby’s first lesson in style.”

"Matthew has done it again with his ABC book... and with some nice surprises like..."V is for Vole! I especially love that the paintings allow some of the wood to show through the paint...it kind of adds a little cheekiness to the term board book."
