Alphabeep! — Debora Pearson

From Ambulance to Zamboni, Alphabeep: A Zipping, Zooming ABC by Debora Pearson, illus. by Edward Miller, zips, zooms, beeps and vrooooms its way through the streets of a noisy town, introducing an alphabet of vehicles (Q is for quarry excavator). Bouncy read-aloud text that brim with metaphors (the quarry excavator gnaws apart a tower of rubble, dropping rocks like crumbs) plus bold graphic illustrations bring the busy cars, trucks and trains to life.
