Alliterative alphabet amusement

New releases

ABCThe board book My First Peanuts ABC is shipping now. It is a journey through our much-beloved alphabet, each page focusing on words starting with one letter (with X, Y, and Z dumped together on a single page.) The pictures are happy, the text is very Peanuts-oriented… and sometimes better suited for someone with more experience wielding English than the folks who are apt to have this book read to them, the 0-3 year olds that this book is labeled for. “Innovators imagine an inspired audience,” indeed! The boards are about right, without some of the odd thickness problems I’ve seen on other board books lately. Any newborns or toddlers reading the AAUGH Blog should feel comfortable ordering this!

(Note that this is one of the books that you can order in an expensive, customized version.)
