Summary: "Great Learning Tool"
This is a great children's book, and I have purchased many as gifts for friends and family. The illustrations are works of art, and not only does it teach the ABC's but the popular history of Rhode Island itself. Wonderful, wonderful book! Highly recommended.

Summary: "Little Rhody!"
It's difficult to give my daughter a taste of RI while living in CA. This book is wonderful at helping to make her a Rhode Islander! Not only are the illustrations beautiful, but the content is informative as well. I even learned some things, and I lived in RI my whole life!
