John F.Dad in ColoradoMy 2-yr-old is learning to talk, my 4-yr-old is learning his letters, my 7-yr-old reads chapter books, and my 10-yr-old is reading Tolkien. All of them had a blast looking at the book together, there was something for everyone. Super fun, and we’re picky about books around here.
Thomas AndersonEditor in Chief at Literary TitanThe writing is playful and clever, packed with wordplay that actually made me laugh a few times. What really got me, though, was the artwork. It’s not just cute or colorful, it’s layered, full of little hidden gems that make you want to linger on each page. I found my child pointing things out to me as we read… Alphabet Parade is a no-brainer. I loved it.
