This book tells the story of the lowercase letters of the alphabet. They start a race to the top of a coconut tree, and pretty soon they are all at the top. Inevitably, all of the letters come tumbling out of the tree and injure themselves. Their family, the upper case letters, all come to pick up the lower case letters that were injured. After getting all of the letters off the ground, it was night time, and the lower case letters go to bed. Until lowercase 'a' starts another race to the top of the coconut tree. Toddlers and preschoolers can be prompted to join in on this story every time the story says "Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom". The bright colors of the letters, and the background make it visually appealing. Children learn to recognize upper and lower case letters from this story as well. Overall, it's a silly fun book that is perfect for toddler or preschool story time.
