Editorial Reviews

Review
other than publication : "M is for Mitten: A Michigan Alphabet is one of my Michigan favorites. It?s a creative and imaginative way to young children about the wonders of our state. It not only helps them learn the alphabet, but also instills, at an early age, pride in this place we call home. If you are a Michigan native, or if you have never visited out state, M is for Mitten will give you a sense of joy and awe about the Great Lakes State."
--Jennifer Granholm, Michigan Governor

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully written...beautifully illustrated!, October 26, 1999
By A Customer
We at Michigan Magazine television have had the extreme pleasure to visit with the illustrator, Michael Glenn Monroe, for an upcoming segment in regards to M is for Mitten and Buzzy the bumblebee and have found a wonderful dedication to collaborate with Annie Appleford and Kathy-jo Wargin in creating exciting illustrations that are bound to stimulate and encourage youngsters to learn the alphabet and more about our Great Lakes State!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful artwork! Destined to be a bestseller in Michigan., October 1, 1999
By A Customer
There are three books in one. An ABC book in peotic verse; a factual book with information in the columns on each page and in the fact sheet at the end; plus a richly painted book of art by one of Michigan's best wildlife artists. A treasure for all ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Triple Threat!, June 22, 2000
By Frank Murphy (Warrington, PA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazing illustrations...great poetry...interesting facts. You'll find all three in this alphabet book about Michigan. Great to read aloud and great to read alone (again and again)....I highly recommend this book (and future books in the series) to all elementary school teachers. My second graders hurried to grab this book after I read it aloud. Unique and such a high-quality book! BUY IT!
