It's backwards! It's inside out! It's every letter for itself! This laugh-out-loud romp is not your average alphabet book!

Z is tired of always having to be last when the alphabet family lines up. He is demanding fair and equal treatment! The letters (more or less) agree to go backwards, but it's not long before P has some ideas of his own. And so does H, for that matter. In fact, it seems as if almost every letter has a different opinion about how the alphabet should be arranged. It's chaos! It's pandemonium! And it's definitely not as easy as A-B-C! Filled with visually humorous details, Bob Kolar's colorful illustrations are the perfect foil for Alethea Kontis's snappy story about the comic confusion that comes when the letters of the alphabet, like a class of unruly children, step out of order and show that each one has a mind of its own.

"In a world where monsters and fairies roam the backyard, one gnome seeks to save his true love from an experiment gone terribly awry! You will find within the pages of this book the diary entries of one Dr. Harry Gnome, mad scientist. Here there be sock monkeys. You have been warned." One crazy spring, NY Times bestselling author Alethea Kontis and Eisner Award winning artist Janet K. Lee created an illustrated twitter serial about Dr. Harry Gnome, a pint-sized mad scientist with the luck of Victor Frankenstein. Dr. Gnome's diary is chock full of rabbits, ray guns, zombies, and sock monkeys. Before there were Dapper Men and Fairy Godmothers, there was Harry Gnome.

While putting on a Halloween pageant, the alphabet mixes things up with some spooky, and funny, results.
