- Synopsis
- S is for Sunflower: A Kansas Alphabet. Nicknamed the "world's breadbasket," the contributions from the great state of Kansas reach out far beyond its borders. Kansas not only leads our nation in wheat production, but has also fueled our Hollywood images of the Wild West (Dodge City) and Dorothy and Toto, as well as giving us leaders in politics (Dwight D. Eisenhower), aviation (Amelia Earhart), and literature (Laura Ingalls Wilder and Langston Hughes). The people, places, and landmarks of the Sunflower State are thoroughly explored with delightful rhymes and detailed expository text by authors Corey and Devin Scillian. Artist Doug Bowles brings a strong and colorful touch to the illustration of each letter. Read and share the delightful history and lore of the Sunflower State with this captivating addition to the Discover America State by State series from Sleeping Bear Press. Satisfy your curiosity about any of the states in the United States by looking in the Bookshare collection for the alphabet books for the state where you live or the states where your family and friends live. Some feature picture descriptions including, P is for Potato, B is for Buckeye, S is for Sooner, S is for Show Me, and C is for Centennial.
