A couple weeks ago I saw a book on Cool Mom Picks that I had to share here. Alphabetica: Odes to the Alphabet is a collection of poems about the alphabet for children. Author Diana Spieker and illustrator Krista Skehan, Alphabetica really is a beautiful work of art. The poetry is described by Personify Press as, “challenging and playful.” I believe this book would be a great one for parents to enjoy with their children and the type of book you’ll hang onto even as your child grows beyond the alphabet years. Rita Arens at Cool Mom Picks said, “You could easily pull out any page and frame it.”
This is one book I will definitely be adding to my list of kid books to buy once this kid I’m cooking shows up. Also, you may remember me mentioning Cool Mom Picks here in the past. It’s basically a mom-oriented, product review blog with a number of fantastic blogger/contributors and editors. The site tends to review products from indie makers and mom-run companies. Founded by Kristen Chase and Liz Gumbinner, the site really is a great one to follow. Entries are short and sweet, products usually are tried and tested, and they don’t feature junky items, big box products, or whining about crummy products. It’s an easy one to flip through in your reader and you won’t be sorry for subscribing.
