![]() ![]() I like the diversity in this book, and I liked how some of the letters worked around a theme:”J is for Jane Austen, K is for (Frida) Kahlo, Two artists that dared to be different.” Some pages may be a little confusing to those just learning their ABCs because, like the example above, the first word won’t begin with the letter. While Marian doesn’t see the connection between this board book and the A is for Activist series, the connection is clear to parents trying to find diverse and progressive books for their little ones. I had just seen a review of the book, so I was very pleased to find a copy. ![]() ![]() I squealed when I saw this in the board book bins at the library. But the pictures in A is for Activist and C is for Community are completely different - dark, swirly pictures. The Feminist ABCs have bright colors and I can clearly make out all the children and objects to grab. Mommy says this book is like A is for Activist and C is for Community, but I don’t see how that can be. Especially with all these books around to teach me. ![]() But I’m sure it will all make sense someday. We have a lot of books all about the ABCs, and they’re all different, so I’m not sure I see the connection yet. Mommy is always loud and theatrical, which is great, but not my way of reading. I like to keep my mouth closed and grumble. My Feminist ABCs is the perfect size for my hands, so I take it away from Mommy a lot while she’s reading, and read it to her instead. ![]()
