An Alphabet of Quadrupeds 
Comprising descriptions of their appearance and habits

'How heavy and clumsy the elephant looks! Yet he is very active, and able to do many things with neatness. If you hold a sixpence in your hand, he will take it up in his large trunk, and place it where the keeper tells him. With the same trunk he is able to tear up large trees, and to strike so hard that the blow would kill a man.’ 'An Alphabet of Quadrupeds’ is a delightful children’s book dedicated to teaching them about the animal kingdom. Each letter of the alphabet has been assigned to a chosen animal, to explore its oddities and distinct qualities in a fun and easy to remember manner.
