Details: ANTicipate a fANTastic read. No ANTiquated ABC book here. ANTics is a great ANTitoxin for boring alphabet books. Fun and imaginative. Great addition to my alphabet book collection.
Review Summary: Creative! Original!

Details: This is one of the most creative books I've seen in a long time. The illustrations are also warm and funny. The simple single alphabet words are hysterical and orginal. My personal favorites are the mad scientist ant who is brilliANT, the punk rocker who is a deviANT and the huddled family of immigrANTs. Well done and kudos to the author.
Review Summary: Fantastic Antics!

Details: This is an extremely witty, brilliantly illustrated book. We've had our copy for several years - and I've also given out many as gifts. Just today my 5 yr old took it to pre-school for show and tell - we needed a good "Q" - and I remembered this book - in it "Q" is represented by "quarANTine" - ants in hospital beds - so funny and cute. The copy is just hilarious - and the art work is just as funny. Also good for vocabulary words!!
