Pop! Tilly taps her top hat and out jumps a big letter A. Off she tumbles to meet an Alligator in a bib, a super-strong Ant, an Alpaca with her very same hair, an Astronaut and many more A friends.

A is for Adventure! is an alphabet coloring book made for young children in preschool, pre-K and kindergarten. Every big, bold picture hides a letter A to find and color, and every page has a short, funny line to read together.

After the coloring fun, little hands warm up their fingers, trace big A and a letters with start dots, connect the dots and finish with a Super Star Certificate. It's letter A practice that feels like play.

Questions parents ask

Who is A is for Adventure! for?

It's made for young children in preschool, pre-K and kindergarten, and early readers love it too. Little ones enjoy finding and coloring the hidden A, while children who are further along can trace the letters and read the funny lines on their own.

Will markers bleed through the pages?

Every coloring page is printed on one side only, so even if a marker soaks through, it never ruins the next picture. For extra-juicy markers, slip a sheet of scrap paper behind the page.

How big is the book?

It's an 8.5 x 11 inch paperback with 47 pages, so the pictures are big enough for small hands and chunky crayons.

What is the hidden letter hunt?

Every picture hides a letter A somewhere, like in a leaf, a cactus or a moon crater. Kids find it, then color it with one of the seven A colors, from Apple red to Azure.
