Each page of this small alphabet board book features an animal or object appealing to young readers. Many important aspects of Aboriginal cultures are featured. Sometimes this is in the choice of objects, such as canoe, drum, moccasins, sweat lodge, and teepee. Other times it is in the illustration itself such as Métis beading on a jacket or a woman’s long dark braid. Each picture is labeled in English, French, and Cree. The alphabetical order is based on the English words. A final page compiles all the pictures.—Canadian Aboriginal Books for Schools

Neepin Auger's alphabet board book uses the same bright, simple style of illustration as the companion Discovering Numbers. English, French and Cree words accompany each illustration. Only the English words, in fact, follow the alphabet while the French and Cree words are translations. The pictures will be familiar to Cree children and provide a useful introduction to the other languages.—Canadian Aboriginal Books for Schools, 2014-2015
