Review: Good idea but poorly executed

What I don't like:1.  Graphics are too small.  They take up about a fourth of the page and the rest is blank space.2.  Graphics are in muted tones.  I would have preferred much brighter colors for the age group this book is geared for.3.  The text is a part of the small graphics picture that as previously mentioned is only 1/4 of the page.  I would have liked to have seen the text separate from the graphic.  It would be nice if the word associated with the letter was in larger text.4.  Some pages could be confusing.  Why at the letter "h" do we suddenly say I love hxxxs and....  The next page then says Ixxxx kxxxxx.  Why did the author start saying and here when the next page was not another word starting with "h".5.  Sometimes as in with the letter "O", the author changes again and the word representing what is loved is not the next word after the "I love" phrase but instead we now have  I love adjective oxxxs.  The only purpose the adjective serves is to confuse a young child.  The adjective begins with a letter other than "O".  Plus, although owls are noctunal, none of the species are actually night owls.  At least if the adjective had been an actual species like barn or hoot it might have had a purpose.6.  Do we really need to start adding a lot of adverbs?  Some of which are more advanced than the age of child I would expect this type book to be geared at.7.  Could the author really not think of a word beginning with "Z"?  I mean where is the "Z" in I love you too?  Maybe here is where the author should have used and across the two pages and had them both be Y's.  I would have skipped the "I Love You Too" and just said I love Zebras for Z. I guess it depends on if you want to get cutesy with the "I love you"s or do you want to use the book for educational purposes.What I Like:The actual content of most of the graphic is cute.
