Praise for Animal Antics A to Z
“Bravo for Kane Press. Animal Antics A to Z is a superior alphabet series. The whimsical characters and wonderful illustrations will have children smiling, laughing, and wondering what will happen next, while learning to recognize letter sounds. A delightful and thoroughly original way to supercharge beginning readers.”
—Roger Farr, Chancellor’s Professor, Emeritus, Indiana University; 
Past President, International Reading Association

He is best known for the PADDINGTON BEAR series by Michael Bond, Because Your Daddy Loves You by Andrew Clements, Tiger Can’t Sleep by S.J.
