Summary: A great book with a long lifespan!
Review: This is a clever, funny book that will hold a child's interest for many years. Younger children will enjoy the rhyming story about a group of letters that go treasure-hunting. Children learning to read, write, and spell will enjoy the letter puns in the story and illustrations. Older kids and adults will like finding all the little jokes and puns, like the map showing the "ball point" peninsula and other landmarks.

We bought this book about a year ago. After countless readings, it is still a fresh, fun read.

Summary: Very Clever!
Review: What a fun book! Michael Chesworth has filled this high C's adventure with loads of puns and visual jokes that will keep a reader coming back to it again and again. The fact that he was able to do so in smooth, jaunty rhyme makes the book even more impressive. This is one of those great finds, a fresh, intelligent picture book that both kids and adults will enjoy over and over.
