Discover what happens when each letter of the alphabet is taken OUT in this alphabeast of a book!

"All alphabet books require mastery of the letters in order to read them, but this one manages that paradox with genius." The New York Times Book Review "Beyond the inherent fun of the concept (which has plenty of potential for classroom activities), every scene tells a story - it's practically 26 books in one." STARRED REVIEW, Publishers Weekly "Amid the flood of alphabet books, now and then one rises to the surface. This one is a prize catch." STARRED REVIEW, Kirkus Reviews "A playful celebration of language not as a dry, mathematical exercise in letter-organisation but as a living organism, in which letters make meaning through a vast mesh of metaphorical associations driven by the imagination - the very faculty that is the hallmark of children's minds." -- Maria Popova Brain Pickings "Very funny and quirkily illustrated."
