Review

Illustrator Per-Henrik Gurth keeps it simple, with bright colors and strong outlines around minimally defined objects in paintings of the Calgary Stampede, dogsleds, hockey, the Yukon - “where the Northern Lights glow,” and last, a splendiferous Zamboni.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, March 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ABC of Canada (Paperback)
Great book for toddlers! Good introduction to the ABC's, Canada and all of its culture in a very easy to read format. My older son is asking to read the "book about Canada" now too!

3.0 out of 5 stars Sweet book, in no way a classic, December 24, 2009

This review is from: ABC of Canada (Paperback)
Bought this book to share with our one year old nephew to acquaint him with Canada over the next couple of years. It will do nicely - sweet pictures, light, lilting text, and this certainly isn't an award winning book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book for young children, June 10, 2008
This review is from: ABC of Canada (Paperback)
I found this book to teach my boys (ages 3 and almost 5) about their parents' home country - Canada. It is great on so many levels. It teaches geography, symbols, animals and so many other aspects of Canada. It even mentions the Calgary Stampede which is in my hometown.
