A is for Auntie explores the extravagant but sometimes daunting role of the modern-day aunt in a rhythmic adventure through the alphabet. This alphabet book includes a story that follows an auntie and her escapades of spending time bonding with her nieces and nephews. Each page is a snapshot of their time together, giving the readers a better sense of the relationship she has with them. Balancing both the amusing and the demanding tasks, she makes being an aunt look fun and lively, and maybe a little exhausting. Although she's not perfect and no replacement for their mother, she's doing her best while trying to make their time together memorable. The love this auntie has for her nieces and nephews is woven through each page.
