|  | Look Once, Look Twice by Janet Marshall
A concept book that combines letters of the alphabet with patterns found in nature. For example, the letter A is green and covered with pink scales, and on the next page the pattern is revealed to be asparagus. Similarly, the letter Z is presented with a black-and-white wavy pattern--that of a zebra's coat. AUTHOR: Janet Marshall
