Lots of unusual animals compete to be featured in this alphabet book with a difference.
A lively cast of characters from aardvarks to zebras decide to disrupt and rewrite an alphabet book to make it more fun. Rhyming text and appealing illustrations combine perfectly to bring the story of big blue bear, elegant eel, fabulous flamingo, snazzy snail and talented toucan to life as each animal claims its rightful place in the book.
Felicity has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, from books on tractors to genetics, from Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns. Felicity is an expert in making tricky topics friendly and accessible to young children and recently has been writing books that celebrate feelings, friendship, empathy, families, and diversity. When she's not writing or researching very specific details on dinosaurs, Felicity can be found tramping through fields and forests foraging for food or just curled up with a bag of Twiglets, a couple of cats and a crossword.
