Caldecott Medalist Paul O. Zelinsky illustrates Kelly Bingham's
outrageously funny, critically acclaimed, and boundary-breaking story
about a moose, a zebra, and the alphabet! Zebra wants to put on a show
as simple as ABC, but Zebra's friend Moose has other (unexpected and
hilarious) ideas!
Zebra thinks the alphabet should be simple. A is for Apple. B is for
Ball. Easy! But his friend Moose is too excited to wait his turn, and
when M isn't for Moose (Mouse gets the honor), the rest of the letters
better run for cover.
Exuberant and zany storytelling brings to life two friends and one
laugh-out-loud comedy of errors that's about friendship, sharing, and
compromise.
The incomparable Paul O. Zelinsky's artwork is bursting at the
seams--literally--with child appeal. Breaking the borders of the page,
and creating the art both digitally and traditionally, Zelinsky turns
convention on its head. The result is a picture book that is innovative,
hilarious, and begging to be read over and over again.
Z Is for Moose will bring laughter and fun to every story time and
alphabet lesson, whether in school or at home.
