Give me a W! Give me an N?
Weeks and weeks (and weeks) ago, the kindergarten class was in the midst of exploring a wide variety of alphabet books whenever they visited the library. 
We enjoyed the intriuging and surprising illustrations of The Turn-Around, Upside-Down Alphabet Book by Lisa Campbell Ernst, among others, but, hands down, the all time favorite for most them was The Human Alphabet, which shows each letter (and a corresponding object) illustrated by one or more leotard-clad bodies from the Pilobolus Dance Company. Well, we had to move the tables and chairs of course. 
Even now, after we've moved on to explore the art of Steve Jenkins and had a sampling of a few sweet dog stories, every week at least one kindergartener will ask me to get that book off the shelf one more time. Enjoy the pictures.
