Each letter of the alphabet is represented by an unusual combination of objects, such as "fork fence," "octopus overalls," and "umbrella underwear." In Max Grovers zany alphabet book, ordinary objects become fresh and new, while the extraordinary suddenly look familiar. Chew the fat with a neighbor over your Fork Fence! Ride the Macaroni Merry-go-round for the twirl of your life! And, heavens, hope for sunshine if youre wearing your Umbrella Underwear! A funny, loopy variation of a standard, bound to inspire youngsters to whip up their own weird wordings.--Publishers Weekly |
