The 411:
A book that takes the letter's of the alphabet and focuses on the things you can't really see you just have to know they are there such as A for Air and B for Breath D for Darkness. Every 3-4 pages takes a word and defines the word without giving the word to you. Then you are asked a question and finally it gives you the answer along with an explanation and summary of the word. It is done in the perfect reader friendly way especially for those reluctant readers. The book uses very basic colors such a black, white, grey, red and pink large eye catching lettering and whimsical artwork. It is definitely a wonderful read for a home or classroom book shelf.
