Portland ABC: A Larry Gets Lost Book by John Skewes

The bestselling Larry Gets Lost series heads to Portland in this colorful ABC book featuring vibrant retro illustrations of this great American city and the perpetually lost pup, Larry. This modern, colorful alphabet book comes on the heels of the regional best-selling Larry Gets Lost in Portland. Larry and his friend Pete see Portland from A (Art Museum) to Z (Portland Zoo), and everything in between. H is for Hawthorne Bridge, P is for Powell’s Books, and W is for Willamette River—children can learn their ABCs and about their hometown! How many letters can you find around you?
"Portland ABC..will certainly bid for heavy rotation in Rose City Montessori classrooms and progressive playdates... The artist/writer's bold alphabetic take on Portland makes use of local icons like Voodoo Donuts and the Hawthorne Bridge."
Portland Monthly 

"'Portland ABC' is a banner in book form to wave with PDX pride."
The Register-Guard

"Many of the things kids love about living in Portland are right there on the page, making this a very special little book for any young—or old, really!—Portlander. Seriously, who living in Portland wouldn’t want a beautifully illustrated book with the elephant statue in the North Park Blocks near Powell’s City of Books (that’s P) representing the letter E?"
