Description
Dianna Bonder's whimsical alphabet picture books have been capturing the hearts and minds of our earliest readers for over 10 years.
Now, in this all-new picture book, Dianna illustrates the ocean, capturing the spirit and beauty of sea creatures throughout the world. A, B, Sea moves and grooves as it brings a whole underwater orchestra to life—blowfish blowing bassoons, flounderfish with flutes, a percussionist pike that pounds through the night . . . it's a medley of colour, sound and rhythm.
With detailed jam-packed illustrations of dozens of ocean creatures and a myriad of musical instruments, accompanied by alphabet verse that is both educational and entertaining, A, B, Sea is sure to engage children who are learning to read as well as the older folk who read to them.
This is an alphabet book that children will want to open while mastering their ABCs and to keep in their collection long after they've made reading a way of life.
