Here is what people are saying about the The Absolutely Awful Alphabet
5 Star Rating  "OMG I LOVE THIS"2009-09-06
- Reviewed By elotaria
Many alphabet books are aggressively "real". They feel they have to be in order to illustrate what the letter stands for. That's cool.

This is different. The author decided to make each individual letter its own character. It's own VILE character, that is. (V is a vegetable vampire, obviously our favorite!) Each letter is in some way influenced by the one next in line... often picking on that one, but sometimes annoyed by it.

The illustrations are suitably "awful", full of teeth and glares (while still being recognizeably letters). And the vocabulary...! A far cry from apples and balls and cats, here the action is all in the adjectives (and sometimes verbs). We get arrogant, voracious, envious, grotesque, cantankerous... well! If this doesn't improve your child's vocabulary, I'll personally send you your money back! (No, no I won't.)

Every library needs this book. I think I'll even buy a few more copies for my niece to give to her pre-k class this year, or her kindergarten class next year!

My 5 yr old daughter's favorite book. The focus is alliteration. Each letter is originally illustrated and has an interesting description.
 
5 Star Rating  "Completely Curious"2007-01-09
- Reviewed By jk1049
This well illustrated and eye catching alphabet book is like no other. Children will be excited by the colorful and unique drawings while the reader will be thrilled to be using unsual vocabulary to descibe the extraordinary adjective and nouns. This is one book that can be repeatedly read for fun without falling asleep!
 
5 Star Rating  "Our 20 month old boy loves this"2006-09-23
- Reviewed By james-forsyth
I'd have to agree with the previous reviewer that this is a great book.

I really enjoy reading it to our son, who, with this book's help, has articulated his first letter (O). It is enjoyable for adults and captivating for children.

The pictures are great, and I am very impressed that the letters drawn in the title are drawn differently to those throughout the book. Just detail is quite unusual in this digital age. The Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddleduck books these days use the same pictures over and over again, just cut & pasted into different contexts.

Well done Mordicai Gerstein! 5 stars! Thoroughly recommended!
 
5 Star Rating  "Very Amusing"2002-01-31
- Reviewed By Anonymous
I chose to read this book for a Children's Lit. class in college. It was one of the most amusing alphabet books I found. The pictures are absolutely great. The book contains tons of volcabulary words (ie. ferocious, jabbering, and quizzical) for those who already know their ABCs. It could be used in the classroom by having kids make up their own monsters using letters assigned to them. Then they could all be compiled to make an alphabet book written and illustrated by the whole class.

Overall, I loved this book. Kids will have a lot of fun with this one!
