Although each letter is predominantly featured in both upper and lower case, the focus of the book is really not the alphabet. The alphabet forms a backdrop and theme for the gorgeous illustrations of airplanes. The realism and minute detail makes this a book that older children, who already know the alphabet, would like to possess. In fact, I know quite a few adult aviation fans who would love to receive this as a holiday gift! My grandson easily spends a half an hour to forty-five minutes just looking at the pictures--a VERY high compliment from any two-year-old.

Although I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves airplanes, it would not be my first choice for teaching my grandson the alphabet, but he is certainly learning to love books and to love airplanes!
