“Readers won’t care whether it’s about letters or numbers - they will be too busy poring over the artwork and laughing.”
“While not for children just learning numbers or the alphabet, this offering will provide a fun way for those a bit older to review both.”
“Boldt’s illustrations have a dimensional, painterly quality that recalls Adam Rex’s work, and the absurd scenarios, strong-willed personalities, and visual gags will have kids laughing from A to 26.”
