Format:Hardcover
This is a great idea, well executed. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by an illustration belonging to the geography, history or culture of the four countries of the United Kingdom. The choices for each letter are imaginative and the artwork is rich in colour and imagery. It is a lovely way to familiarise young children with the alphabet, while subliminally reinforcing pride in the richness of our shared heritage. Our baby loved the colours and as parents we found ourselves thinking of all the places we wanted to visit in our own country.

I bought this book knowing I'd like it, but I wasn't entirely certain my children - boys ages 2 and 4 - would as well.

Happily, they really love it. And suddenly we all know a bit more of what it is to be British and it feels good!

Whoever's planning the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2012 Olympics should take a look at this book and steal some of its best ideas! It's fun; it's beautifully done; it's clever; and it's simple too.

Superb 17 Dec 2011

Format:Paperback
A witty, fun and unique variation on the ABC theme. Our children loved it and this is becoming a very useful stocking filler for other friends' children as well. As a Scot in exile I liked the canter around the Kingdom. Excellent.
