We've seen a trend recent years of alphabet books that do their best to be more. Some are informative. Others, like this one, use humor. This one uses a single object, rabbits, to illustrate every letter. Sometimes this is in the form of a sentence like "Can you believe how many rabbits are on this page". Other times it's through trickery, like disguising the rabbits as something else. It's not a story exactly but there's a lot of humor in the creative uses of rabbits and the increasingly exasperated owl. It's humor that will reach early elementary kids and the adults reading to them alike. And the illustrations are charming so it's also fun just to leaf through.
