This full-coloured educational book features differently costumed dolls to represent letters of the alphabet.  Not only that, but each doll "likes" a food item beginning with the first letter of his or her name. The dolls representing U, X and Z have a bit of a problem finding a favorite food, but the author finds a way around this dilemma.A couple of suggestions would be for the names and food items to better reflect the nationality/theme of the individual costumes, and also for the food items to be shown as real photographs (like the dolls) instead of drawings.  Also, not all of the snacks reflect a healthy food choice.Overall, an innovative way to teach the alphabet using visual aids, and which will appeal mostly to girls.Amanda Richards, June 17, 2013
