Double the letters--double the fun! You've never seen an ABC book quite like this. Each page features words or phrases where the letters of the alphabet "double up."
Two by two the letters come, in a riot of inventive language, fun sounds, and witty images: DD is for puddle, but that's not all. The illustration shows a crazy, chaotic street full of animals, including ducks enjoying a swim, plus a sign that says "No waddling in the middle of the muddy road" and a "Daddy-O" license plate. It's an unusual approach that's really irresistible, and perfect for parents, teachers, and librarians who'd like a new and entertaining way to teach the alphabet to little ones.

AA Is for Aardvark: Double the Letters! Double the Fun!
Sterling Publishing branches out into picture books with this innovative alphabet book focusing on words with double letters such as aardvark, trekking, egg and puzzle. The concept is reinforced with the illustrations; for example, the illustration for DD is a bear driving through the puddle: ducks swim in puddles surrounded by signs reading "No WaDDling in the MiDDle of the MuDDy Road," while J is for "Just Jacks" an image of two jackrabbits on cards and NN is for buNNy standing next to a tin of carrots labeled "SoNNy's CaNNed DiNNer."
Clearly, the kids who get the jokes will be the ones who already know the alphabet - so who is this title really for? Some letters are a stretch, such as WW for www.kitty.cat, OO for toodle-oo and VV for skivvies. The illustrations are cartoony and sometimes clever and amusing, but neither the writing or illustration stands out beyond mediocre. An optional purchase.
