This is a wonderful book for children (and the young at heart). In writing one of a series about the states, Rajean Shepherd has done a masterful job of looking at Nebraska from lots of angles and putting these together into this book. From the Cornhuskers to Nebraska fossils to Native Americans to the pioneers she goes from Nebraska "A" to Nebraska "Z". The illustrations, that fit so well with the text, are outstanding by Sandy Appleoff. This book would be a great Christmas gift for you, your children, or your grandchildren.

This book was perfect. My son is using it as an ambassador gift for his trip overseas! It details Nebraska and all the great things about living here! I loved it!

What a wonderful book! Rajean writes this book on several levels, for youngsters to adults! Even though I am a Nebraska native, I have learned many new things about my state from this book! Sandy's illustrations are sweet and simple, with lovely color tones. I have given this book as a baby gift as well as a gift to our elderly friends in England. It has been enjoyed by all and will be treasured for years!

This is a fun book for all ages. My 4 year old son loves it for the alphabet and I love it for all the information and fun facts. Great book!

As a resident, but not native, of Nebraska, this is a great book for any age. There is a lot of information that I probably would've learned in an elementary classroom in Nebraska. I bought it for my mom to read to my son, but I'm pretty sure she's keeping it for herself!
