DESCRIPTION:
They'll never look at the alphabet the same way again!. A is for ark. But did you know that if you turn an A upside down and round the point out a little, it becomes an ark? B is for balloon.

Young readers will be fascinated with the way the letters evolve into the final creation

By way of an introduction, an "A" in a boxed frame grows arms and legs and vaults out of its box across the first pages of the book until it becomes an acrobat perched on the title on the title page. In later pages, an "i" splits in half, spreads its wings, and transforms into an insect; an "r" sprouts feathers and grows a beak, becoming a rooster; a "Y" bulges and transforms into the head and horns of a yak.
