An Edible Alphabet By Bonnie Christensen

This book is a concept book and the purpose is to teach the letters of the alphabet. An Edible Alphabet describes the alphabet by providing edible items for each letter of the alphabet. Christensen provides fruits, vegetables, plants and berries found around the world for each letter of the alphabet. This book provides a tasty way to learn about the alphabet.
I like this book because of the illustrations. These illustrations seemed to use a woodcarving technique. I also like these illustrations because they include a boarder. This book also introduces diversity because it provides plants from all over the world. I also likes that the author included an index of the plants in the back of the book. This tells the reader what the plants are how to use them in cooking. I also like that this book includes the upper and lower cases of each letter. I did not like some aspects of this book. This book is a concept book. An Edible Alphabet does not have a plot, it just lists edible plants. Some of the plants the author included are very hard to pronounce and not used in daily life.
