This book is so sweet. I LOVE the illustration style! It's similar to what I was reading as a child, and even what my own mom was reading. It's nostalgia for me, plus cute rhymes and a focus on the alphabet, plus fun for my 3-year-old. She loves looking at the critters :)

Note: I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review. Here's my full review: https://literaryquicksand.com/2021/10/review-cedar-creek-critters-from-a-to-z/

Wow, this was incredible. It's safe to say I have a new favorite author! I was enthralled with this book. I thought about it when I wasn't reading it, and almost wanted to slow down and savor it, but I couldn't. I needed to know what happened next. It's just the perfect storm of a family not communicating, not connecting, parent projecting their own selves onto their children.
