Prepare for takeoff! Jerry Pallotta brings us another high-flying alphabet book with a lot of velocity. THE JET ALPHABET BOOK propels young minds into the wild blue yonder to fly with Goblins and Nighthawks while they lock in solid reading skills. Learn that the Flying Falcon, while able to carry 3000 pounds of fuel, can only fly for an hour and a half. The Dream, a Russian jet, is large enough to carry ten school buses! Zillions of other exciting facts about the jet age zoom across the pages of this book.

Charlesbridge Publishing in Watertown has been producing academic and activity books for children and the school trade since 1980. With "The Jet Alphabet Book," the 24th by Jerry Pallotta, Charlesbridge has issued one that will be as fascinating to adults as to children. Pallotta, a frequent visitor to the Cape, has been instrumental in bringing the alphabet book back into style. Told by several publishers the concept was outdated, Pallotta self published his first one, The Ocean Alphabet Book, and took it to the aquarium in Boston. The officials immediately purchased it in quantity and Pallotta's alphabet career was launched.
