Summary
What about X? an Alphabet Adventure
From A to Z, the students of the Alphabet Academy are heading on a camping trip in this playful picture book, What About X? All the letters of the alphabet know exactly what to pack for their big camping trip. B is bringing binoculars. C is collecting canteens. But X can't think of a thing to bring! In her picture book debut, author Anne Marie Houppert combines the excitement of a first field trip with the magic of collaboration and friendship. Illustrator Daniel Wiseman paints maximum personality into each character, underlining the idea that everyone is special and necessary--just like every letter of the alphabet! "Houppert creates plenty of fun along the way. As the high-energy characters make their decisions, even pre-readers may want to suggest their own additions to the trip. Fun for reading aloud." -- Booklist "Colorful letters with expressive faces, spindly arms and legs, and a few character-defining accessories add to the book's playfulness, with lots of details throughout to pore over on repeat reads." -- Horn Book
