This classic book from Graeme Base is an all time favourite of mine I remember spending what seemed like hours looking through these pages intralled. I recently picked it up again and was just as amazed at the clever, detailed illustrations.

Base's text uses rhyming and alliteration for each letter of the alphabet in the beautiful double pages pairing with it incredible things that also begin with the letters.

This book is endless fun for Children and a great way to learn new words.
