    About this ebook

    A crime has been committed in Alphabet Town. The vowels have been kidnapped and without them there is the threat that no words will ever be spelled again. Will one of the remaining letters have the courage to save the day?

    In true Dr. Seuss fashion, Douglas J. McGregor takes us on a whimsical rhyming adventure of lettered proportions.
