"A book that teaches children the alphabet and Broadway history? I’m down with that. John Robert Allman has crafted witty rhyming couplets, and Peter Emmerich has illustrated Broadway’s divas in some of their most celebrated roles. Patti LuPone as Evita? Check. Ethel Merman as Rose in Gypsy? Check. Idina Menzel as Elphaba in Wicked? Check. The back of the book has thumbnail biographies for grown-ups, and the interior covers are reserved for autographs – in the hope that the youngsters who read the book might someday meet some of the stars in person. (For ages 3 to 7)"
