Introducing Alphabet Kids

We are always looking for great books in our house. I like to find books that teach life lessons with a nice background story in which my daughter can relate. During my quest I found Alphabet Kids. Here is what the company has to say about the series, " The Alphabet Kids follows the fun adventures of a group of diverse children who learn about their multicultural backgrounds.  Their stories help children to love who they are and realize that people who are different can be very good friends." We have the book Allegra's Apple Tree which teaches kids about the environment. In the story the girl is very aware of wasting paper in class (kids are drawing on many sheets with total disregard for the amount) and teaches the class how to conserve. After reading the story many times after lunch my almost 2 year old has learned that paper has too sides and she says to me, "we draw on back too". I could not be more proud of her and am so grateful that there are still books out there that can teach a lesson by telling a great story. There are six characters in the set that teach a different lesson and come from a different background. I am eager to buy the other five for my little one as the graphics are fantastic and the story holds her attention.
 Want to win? One lucky reader will win a book of their choice from the six in the series. Contest open until 4/13/11. Please leave one comment per entry with a valid email in each comment.
