About this book

A is for Alligator, B is for Baboon and C is for Camel in this rather lovely animal-themed ABC book from Oliver Jeffers. Along the way, we meet a Moose, an Orangutan and a Toucan too – oh, and a Xerus and Quail for good measure.

Each page has a big letter and the animal picture in plenty of white space, with nice strong board pages for little hands to turn. This is a very nicely produced ABC book which also teaches little ones to name animals, so it’s doubly lovely.

Fans of Oliver Jeffers’ picture books for older children will be very keen to add this one to their collection, which is perfect for younger siblings.
