This is a very cleverly written alphabet book. Each letter has a story to tell. Some stories have a moral or teach a lesson, others are nonsensical but entertaining, while others are just a funny story. Alliteration is in play for many of the letters which makes for a lot of read-aloud fun. Activities: https://www.brainpickings.org/2014/10/23/once-upon-an-alphabet-oliver-jeffers/
