PSCleo the Cat series.
Illustrated by
Caroline Mockford.
This attractive rhyming book challenges readers to guess the objects that represent each letter of the alphabet. "A is crunchy, / crisp and red. / B floats on the waves." In the bold, uncluttered illustrations, Cleo the orange cat appears on nearly every page, interacting with the objects in question, while the thick black outlines echo the typeface.
