As the alphabet progresses, the cars become modern. The earliest car is a Ford 999 from 1901 and goes to the Ferrari F1-2001 from 2001. The background scenes and clothing also reflect the time period.
The letters are in bold but do not necessarily stand out like a lot of alphabet books. Lots of alliteration is utilized throughout the book so the adult reader can point out the lower case companion.
The end pages (front and back) have the drawings of each car featured, its name and year manufactured.
The book is oversized so perfect for sharing with a large group. My favorite letter is "J" for "jarring, jerk, jolt, and jounce" because Mr. Floca makes the letters look like they are jarring, jerking, jolting and jouncing!!
Highly recommend.
