'A is the anchor and that you all know, B is the bowsprit that's over the bow. . . .' McCurdy uses an 1800s sailors' chantey to teach your children the alphabet---and give them a stem-to-stern tour of a U.S. Navy frigate! A delightful slice of American history with colorful scratchboard drawings and nautical definitions. 28 pages, hardcover from Houghton Mifflin.
