“Silly Sentences ABC” is not your ordinary alphabet letter book. Each letter is accompanied by a fun and sometimes quirky alliteration, illustrated with creative and colorful artwork to match.

“That’s silly!” says Conner.

“Why don’t the bears look happy?”
“Maybe it’s because they are being bathed by bugs,” replies Mom.

“Look the elephants have wings and the dragon is breathing hot lava!”

“Mom, what’s a fig?”

“What are the gorillas doing? There are no BIG gorillas.”

“What’s an icicle? Is she trying to blow it up?” asks Conner
“Do you think she’s going to be able to do it?”
“Naah,” replies Conner

“Mom, how do you think Nora put that on her neck? How about she pulls it and it comes apart and then it can be put back together again.”

Parent Comment:

“Silly Sentences ABC,” a letter book, lives up to its title. My three-year-old and I couldn’t help but say each sentence or drawing was “silly.” This young author/artist has a creative imagination and illustration skills that make smile, giggle, or laugh out loud. It is amazing to read that this book was written/drawn when she was ten and published when she was twelve. I really appreciated her use of words that encouraged my son to ask what they mean. Not only great for letter recognition, but also for vocabulary building, and alliteration skills.
