Oh! I'm tempted to give this a five star rating, because so many books of the last 10 years or so are much like this earlier one. But objectively I have to admit that this is not quite as amazing as the very best of those.... Still, it's timeless and I hope your library still has a copy.

Definitely use a sheet of paper or another book so you and your children can try to make the predictions!! Why is R for grapes??

I will continue to look for more by George Shannon. ( )

A clever idea, but harder than I realized for young children: E is for embers, J is jack-o'-lantern. Each two-page spread has today on the left and tomorrow on the right; I covered the right side and had kindergartners guess what the word would be. For example, A is for seed---tomorrow's apple. ( )

Today's start is tomorrow's growth. This book explains that today's seed is tomorrow's apple, today's eggs are tomorrow's birds, and today's milk is tomorrow's cheese.

This book is an alphabet book that relies on the second stage of the object being described. Ex. A is for todays seed and tomorrows apples. ( )
