The Little Red Cat Who Ran Away and Learned his 

A-B-C's (the Hard Way)

by Patrick McDonnell

This is my new favorite ABC book!!  Such a great original!  I am already a big fan of Patrick McDonnell's picture books.  I love his simple, fun illustrations.   Dragons and bears and Alligators are all as lovable as cat.  This book is a gem, I am sure it will be a kid favorite.  What fun it was to read.  Little ones will enjoy figuring out what part of the illustration goes with the letter of the alphabet.  Two thumbs up!  Have a fun read!
