Linc absolutely LOVES this book, and would have given it 5 stars. Me, I'm not a huge fan, and probably would give it only 1 star. But since there is really nothing wrong with it, I met Linc in the middle and gave it 3 stars.
I like the idea of learning the military alphabet, and I thought the preface and end notes of the book were really interesting. Each letter has what they use in the military, so for example A is for Alpha, B is for Bravo, etc. And then it gives a little sentence at the bottom of the page that uses a word for the letter in some sort of military context. So for example, Brave soldiers prepare for Battle. It's not graphic (no blood or guts or anything, and it's not political, and it has some pretty good pictures of airplanes, tanks, ships, etc. which is probably why Linc loved it so much. I was kind of hoping it would have been more about the military alphabet, like why the decided to use aplpha for A instead of like Atlantic or something. In the very least, they could have made it rhyme or a little more catchy, or put some sort of thought into it. That's why I didn't like it I guess, I felt it was lacking the creativity or deeper insite I wanted. But a three year old isn't look for deeper insite, so it worked well for Linc. :)

This is a fun military alphabet book for toddlers and adults. The illustrations of airplanes, helicopters, and ships entertained my toddler. I normally don't care for pro-military stuff in kids books, but this was pretty tame.
This has seen a lot of action at our library. Great for those kids who are really into the military or military vehicles.
Unique alphabet book with both military alphabet words and flags using military things to illustrate the letter.
