Readers who have been to a state or county fair will appreciate how Debra Frasier evokes the dazzling, dizzying feel of midway in this alphabet book. Those who’ve never been to a fair will get a vicarious sense of the fun on a stroll through these pages. There’s so much to look at on every page. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a word or words naming common sights at a fair ( A rena, B arn, E at E verything, I ce Cream, R oller Coaster). The accompanying image incorporates the letter of the alphabet multiple times in a motif that shouts out in carnival-bright colors. (Ages 3–6)
