Review:

This unusual alphabet picture book really caught my eye. Celebrating London's unique, diverse culture with entries like "B for Brick Lane", it's got a contemporary feel and lots of gift book potential.

Vibrant celebration of England's capital city.

"Not only does this book help children learn their alphabet and a selection of words, it also introduces them to the unique cultural identity of one of the world's best known cities."

"A perfect souvenir or a great basis for a classroom display or topic theme."
