Description
Little ones will practice the alphabet, learn animal names, and can try out clever acrobatic moves by themselves or with a friend in this inventive and amusing picture book created by beloved Caldecott Honor-winning Anita Lobel.
From adoring alligators to zany zebras, the animals in this book are sure to keep young readers amused with their antics. And look at the acrobats! The remarkable group of energetic contortionists stretch and stand and reach to form all twenty-six letters of the alphabet with their bodies. The merry performers will encourage kids to get up and move around after reading!
