\ Children's Literature\ - Vicki Foote\ This alphabet book about the Armed Services and military life is written in verses of four lines, and each page has sidebar text that explains each concept in more detail. The verse for the letter A is about the American Armed Forces, and the sidebar text relates more information about the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, and the Coast Guard. Each letter depicts different aspects of the military, from an explanation of the term "military brats," to a listing in the sidebar of the special phonetic alphabet system for communicating over the radio or phone. Both personal situations and technical explanations are addressed. The realistic drawings reveal interesting details, as in the intricate illustration of a submarine alongside an aircraft carrier and a helicopter. Another picture shows a soldier reading a letter from his child. This serious and respectful text provides important information in a unique approach.\ \
