Book Overview
In 26 stunning spreads, black-and-white photos of Weimaraner dogs forming the letters of the alphabet are accompanied by color portraits of Fay Ray, Bettina, and other four-legged friends illustrating a word beginning with that letter. Some are obvious, some are surprising, and all display William Wegman's trademark wit and style.

sublime

I wondered if Wegman could surpass himself once again and he sure does. A generous treat for all ages with irresistible examples of how to find the soul of a weimaraner or two. An ABC changed into very heaven.
Great for the little one, great for Mom and Dad

This was one of my son's first favorite books. He would listen to me read it as many times as I was willing, and because of Wegman's non-cutesy approach, that was many times indeed. Although the dog-formed letters aren't as clear as text, they don't need to be - there are many other instances of the letters on each page, and hearing them is as important as seeing them. Overall, a great experience in enjoying reading for parent and child alike.
A new approach to the alphabet

This book made me wish learning the a-b-c's were this much fun back in my own childhood. The photos are amazingly original and your kids will truly enjoy coming back to their letter lessons with Wegman's adorable dogs. A very fresh approach to teaching! NOTE: check out Wegman's fairy tales featuring his prize dogs too.
Humorous for children AND adults

My 5 year old son has this book memorized. He laughs everytime he reads it. It has also been very helpful in teaching him the alphabet. It is an especially fun book for us since our pet is a Weimeraner.
As much for grown ups as for children

Funny with a different sense of humor. Characters become quickly familiar. My two-year old's favorite (and I don't even like dogs!).
