G Is for Grits ─ A Southern Alphabet

Fried zucchini, juicy watermelon, lazy alligators, and sweet tea-the South can be defined by these things and so much more. From a very young age, Southern children learn of the simple joys of good food, the peace of a warm summer night, and the good of practicing perfect manners. And because every child must learn his or her ABCs, there is no better way than by exploring them in a truly Southern way. Discover a Southern treasure with each letter, be it a mouthwatering pie whose scent drifts through the air or a nice bowl of grits, still warm from the pot. The luscious illustrations and easy rhymes are not only ideal for readers, but they are sure to have the little ones' alphabets perfected as quick as a horned toad dashes into the brush.
