A must have book for your children's book collection

Every child no matter where they are located will love this alphabet book. It is Canadian authored but I am an American and know first hand it is a great representation of life on the prairie. With most people not having exposure to prairie life it is very educational and gives us all a glimpse into the simple and rewarding world of living on the prairie. Highly recommend. We have had this book for many years and just recently purchased it for upcoming birthday gifts for pre-school aged kids.

Finally, the REAL Midwest!

Although actually inspired by the Canadian prairie, the intricately-detailed drawings in this book reminded me unmistakably of the four years I lived in Kansas. It really captures the unique beauty (and architecture and weather) of the prairies, and of real farm and ranch life, and would be a great addition to any Midwestern school or public library collection as well as the family's. Children (and adults!) in other parts of the country will find it fascinating, too -- the drawings are very authentic, detailed, and full of fun surprises that kids will love. Also, instead of representing each letter of the alphabet with just one word, it uses the letter several times throughout a complete, entertaining sentence. I plan to send it to all the children I know in other regions of the country, and perhaps even abroad! A lovely, very educational and fun book.
