The Big Alphabet Book of Critter Tales: Letter "P"

The piggy sisters, Petunia and Peaches, dressed up in their matching purple and pink plaid pajamas, to attend the all-you-can-eat pancake party. They piled their plates high with pancakes, going back to refill their plates in order to try all the syrup choices, from peppermint, peanut-butter, pineapple to pickle juice flavors. Yum Yum, oh what sticky fun!

Remington Raccoon, was rocking and rolling, to the radio at the riverside campground where he lived. His ring-tail rotated round and round to the rhythm of the music as he played along, drumming on the tops of round garbage can lids. Rat-a-ratta, rat-a-tatta, rat-a-rat-rat-rat, ratta-tatta-rat. His relatives, Rocco, Rollie, Russet, and Rylie-Rose, enjoyed the show, relaxing back in the rhododendrons, eating the raisins, raspberries, radishes, and red rhubarb they had recycled from the rubbish pile. It was a rollicking show that woke up all the campers!

From Letter “B”

Badoodle the baby brown bear bounced a big bright-blue ball off the bed’s footboard. Bam Bam Bam. Boom Boom Bam. Bam Badoodle Bam. BAM BAM BA BA BA BING BAM! Until big brother came and bopped the ball right out the bedroom window. It went through the big beech tree and into the babbling brook where it could bounce without making a sound!

From Letter “F”

Forty four fire-flies flitted and flew, forwards and backwards, avoiding the flicking tongues of the freckle-faced frogs Freddie and Fredericka who were floating the day away in their fountain.

From Letter “C”

Little Miss Cattywampas, the calico cat, loved to pretend to be a cannonball, racing, chasing, and bouncing off chairs, curtains, and the comfy couch. When the sound of the can opener, crunching and ca-whirring on her cat food tin, caught her attention, she could not help but cartwheel across the carpet right into the kitchen. Yum yum yum in her bowl!

From Letter “S”

Sylvester the snake slowly slithered across the stones while he sang his silly songs, sisssss sssiss sisss sssissss a-sis si ssisssss, as he went about the day. His silver scales shone in the sunlight, sparkling as he slid along the shores of the Susquehanna river. What a beautiful day for a nature “walk.”

Letter “E” from “Critter Tales”: Evangeline Ericka-Lynn, Evy to friends, was excited to be going to the Extraordinary Elephant Entertainment Experience Show later that evening. Her elegant gown matched the eleven emerald earrings she was putting in her enormous ears. She expected to win the top entry prize for her ear-piercing trumpeting explosion.

Illustration and critter tale for Letter “G” - George the little giraffe liked to put on his grandpa's giant galoshes and go run and jump in the rain, going galumpity, galumpity, galumpity, glump, galloping through the growing puddles.

Letter “I”: While most schools teach reading, writing, and arthrimatic, the Iguana Institute instructed in insect identification, instant freeze, and imitation-camouflage. Isadore Iguana was a top student who had earned international fame for his incredible abilities.
