Description
The up to date 40th anniversary edition of this highest-selling ABC book celebrates Alaskan culture, with all-new colorful and imaginative artwork.
This playful and humorous alphabet book inspires learning the ABCs and introduces babies to Alaskan flora, fauna, and culture. Meet a moose in mukluks, a reindeer within the rain, and salmon snowshoeing! A word list on the end defines words introduced within the text that won’t seem familiar but are not unusual in Alaskan culture, like qiviut–the wooly undercoat of a muskox–and umiak–a ship constituted of animal skin stretched over a wooden frame.
