Reviews"Turbocharged with fun for both new and capable readers. It will dazzle reluctant readers and disappear right off the shelves." -- Booklist (starred review) "There's strong appeal here for the youngest comic-book fans, with many doses of humor along the way." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "Engaging alphabet book whose characters embody the right mix of reassurance, goofiness, and humor." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "P might as well stand for the page-popping, large-scale Pictures that distinguish this ABC." -- Horn Book Magazine "Cleverly conceived ABC. One character is more inventive than the next. McLeod is a master at creating entertaining figures." -- Publishers Weekly "This frothy mix of laughs, giggles and Good Guys zeroes in on its target audience with superhuman accuracy and action." -- Kirkus Reviews "A dazzling parade. Each character is deftly described. Stunning graphics. A sure hit that will fast become a favorite." -- Chicago Sun-Times
