Myself and my little girl was slightly disappointed in this book. The entireity of the book was okay with the help in teaching and learning the letters of the alphabet along with an object that taught how that specific letter coordinated with the picture, however, the only letter that I did not care for was X. Instead of using an object in the storyline that began with the letter X and showing the coordinating picture, they decided to use the word eXtremely, and the facial representation was expressed on the main character in this book, which was the Dog. I felt that explaination and teaching option was inappropriate and not at all correct. The story was a little boring, but short and easy to read. But the way the story was written was slightly confusing as well. The section towards the end of the book that showed the letters of the alphabet and coordinated them with the appropriate pictures was a great teaching method, as my daughter caught on quick and it was easy and fun for her to learn. However, I was overall disappointed in the way this book was done all together.
