Alphabet Animal Adventures Across America

Description:

**Twenty six letters. Twenty six animal friends. Twenty six foods. Twenty six places to go across America.** On every page the name, the animal, the food and the city all start with that page’s letter, and so do the words that describe them. **Inside:** - A letter hidden in every picture, and a seek and find page - A map of all twenty six stops - A guide to the real places behind the pages - Words to know, from alert to zealous - An A to Z list of every friend, food and city **Words to try out loud:** alert, bashful, captivated, driven, enticing, frolicking, all the way to zealous. **Read it A to Z, or open to any letter and stay a while. For ages four to eight, to read together or on their own.** **How it was made:** Olivia Weisman and Loren Weisman wrote the book together. For every picture, they wrote a description of what they wanted for the background, the character, the food and the location, then sent it to MyStoryBot, an AI illustration tool. From there, they adjusted and edited what came back until it was exactly what they wanted. The drawing on the back cover is Olivia’s own. The book is dedicated “To Creative Dads and Daughters everywhere.” A daddy-daughter book by Olivia Weisman and Loren Weisman. Published by Dadau Publishing.
