## Description

In 26 never-before-published short and wonderfully clever poems, Langston Hughes takes children through both the alphabet and the animal world. From Ape to Zebra--with bees, camels, fish, and even a unicorn in between--he paints a picture of each animal with just a few simple, but telling, words.

Review: Five Stars - So free and imaginative. Not "cute". A light touch to the alphabet for creative children and parents..
Review: An adult ABC - Love it! It has so much fun in it! Young parents and older children will enjoy the word play and humor!
