Both preschool children featured in this book are adorable and inquisitive. This is one of the titles in a new series of board books for toddlers and nursery school children that will teach and delight. As a concept book, ABC pairs letters of the alphabet with animals and items that exit in nature. Even the ants and bees appear friendly toward the smiling faces of Beardshaw’s little ones. This reader appreciates the use of X in eXamine as it sums up the nature hike. The letters and words are large and printed in a readable font but it is the illustrations that push the book to the top. Even the jackets worn by the children are designed in nature prints.

We have a storyline, clear text, and adorable character within in a well-illustrated package. Add this to public library collections and gift to babies – toddlers and to those who love them.
