Author Notes

Baker & Taylor
An alphabetical look at Canadian animals.
Baker & Taylor
Presents an animal that is common in Canada with each letter of the alphabet.
Perseus Publishing
A bestselling introduction to the alphabet and Canadian wildlife from A to Z, and a great gift for little ones â perfect for ages 2 to 5

Between the beaver building branch by branch, the loon laughing on the lake, and the powerful, playful polar bear, Canada is home to a spectacular array of animals. This concept book celebrates the countryâs diverse wildlife by presenting each letter of the alphabet alongside a representative mammal, insect, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish, or invertebrate. The creatures portrayed hail from coast to coast to coast, and reflect close research even in their stylized depictions.

Short text phrases describe animal behavior and play with alliteration, making each spread fun and engaging. Paper collage artwork by Geraldo ValÃ©rio is simple yet sophisticated, full of colour, movement, and touches of humour. Created with just paper, scissors, and glue, this art style will easily inspire home or classroom activities. Two informational spreads at the end of the book feature facts about each creature, with uppercase and lowercase letters repeated for additional comprehension.
