The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z! by Steve Martin, Roz Chast

2.0

This is a good example of one of those books that poses as a children's book, but isn't one. I mean, the text is not children-friendly; it features difficult words that don't even rhyme all of the time. There is alliteration, but that doesn't really mean alot to a kid when he doesn't know what is being said. The sentences are a stretch, at best. The illustrations are alright; basically, to me, this book was written for the gratification of the author, or for adults who think Steve Martin is so funny that they want their children to appreciate him, too. And... they're not going to.
