Written by Erin Cabatingan, Illustrated by Matthew Myers
Musk Ox is tired of always being in the middle just because he starts with M and that is in the middle of the alphabet. So he has decided to change what each letter in the alphabet stands for. He eats Zebra’s apple that starts his alphabet book, and then states that he is doing him a favor. This is a hilarious story about Musk Ox’s need to feel important by finding how he can be tied to each of the letters of the alphabet. Zebra gets irritated by his ridiculous behavior. I chuckled all the way through this book.
