You've learned your alphabet from Apple to Zebra. Now have some fun with it. In Alpha Beta Chowder, you'll meet noisome Naomi (she's nervy as a newt), a twerp named Toby (his teasing can be tasteless), and the lovey-dovey lunatic from Lvov. See a hag with the heebie-jeebies! Hear Carrotina play her concertina! Each of the twenty-six verses tells a laugh-aloud tale, full of savory words to relish the sight and sound of, and William Steig's illustrations add immeasurably to the merriment.
