Product Description
Forget A is for apple and B is for ball! In Alphabad, Shannon Stewart offers an original, hilarious take on the perennially popular alphabet book. Written with both children and parents in mind, Alphabad teaches the ABCs through the alliteration of bad behaviour. In an Alphabad world, for example, m doesnt stand for mouse, or even for mommy. Rather,M is for mischief. Making mischief in malls will make Mommy mad.Other memorable examples include:E is for excuse. Pushing extra buttons on the elevator requires an excellent excuse. L is for lies. Telling lies leads to lengthy lectures. Q is for quarrel. A quartet of quarreling kids should be quarantined. T is for trouble. Troops of toddlers on tricycles is trouble. W is for wicked. Writing words on the wall is wicked.Carefully crafted to teach both letters and their elemental sounds, Stewarts rollicking text is accompanied throughout by Dusan Petricics mischievous illustration. The result is an alphabet book to be treasured by the wicked children that live in all of us.

Fabulous ABC book!!!!, May 31 2008
By Stacey Pivovar - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Alphabad: Mischievous ABCs (Hardcover)
My two boys (6 and 2) can't get enough of this book! They love hearing about the naughty things that the Alphabad kids are up to. And I love the vocabulary in this book...I'm getting to explain phrases such as "Offices are not obstacle courses for orienteering ogres." to the kids.I'm buying another copy of this book to give to my son's kindergarten teacher.
