A collection of 26 inspirational messages--A to Z--that motivate readers to take ownership of their lives and strive for excellence and success!

New York Times best-selling picture-book author Amy Krouse Rosenthal teams with McSweeney's regular Gracia Lam to tell the sweet, simple story of a young child's typical day—from morning to bedtime. Each scene is described in three-word "ABC" phrases, such as "Awake Beautiful Child." Secret "ABC" scenes hidden throughout the artwork—as a secondary "seek and find" game of sorts—will encourage multiple readings and reward close-looking. An ideal read-aloud book to read just after waking or just before bed.

Noted author Byron V. Garrett creates a children's version of his very first book, The ABC's of Life in celebration of it's 20th anniversary.

Ever thought about relearning your ABC? In this exotically illustrated book, Ira Gorawara takes the reader on a journey back to elementary school, back to the joy of multi-coloured pens. Each of the 26 letters of the alphabet have a corresponding short story, poem, or essay, representing a dimension of our lives, as perceived by 17 year-old Ira. These stories urge us to reconnect with parts of our life we have lost touch with, or, perhaps, never been in touch with.

One hundred and fourteen authors and illustrators of children's books share the process of researching, writing, and publishing books, discuss what their inspirations are, and recount the best and worst advice they ever received.

A wonderful children's book about life and seeing the world through your own eyes. We can choose what we want to write on the pages on our unwritten story. With purpose, courage, gratitude, positivity, and love; anything is possible. Age is just a number. Gratitude is a choice. Peace is something that we build from within. Happiness can be created. Love is what makes everything worthwhile. May you live your life with meaning and enjoy the journey. This book is currently only available in paperback.

Two endearing black cats lead children through the alphabet as each letter brings new words for the Halloween season. Patricia Eubank's art is colorful and full of the little details that children love to pore over. This tale is perfect for the young child as there's nothing scary in the book.
