Customer Reviews

A must-have for all Ohio elementary libraries
Beautiful illustrations with varied reading levels. Each letter depicts a different aspect of Ohio history. For example, "W is for Wright Brothers." With so little written about Ohio history, it is nice to find one not only done but done well.

Essential for all Ohioans and Ohio lovers
This book is enjoyable on all levels, especially if you are a born and raised Ohioan like myself, and my family. My mother, "Grandma" enjoys reading it to all her granchildren; who live in various cities within Ohio. Each page is an Ohio History lesson and enjoyable prose wrapped into one. It is essential for everyone's personal library. Our family loves it!

Excellent Book
This is a delightful book full of illustrations which hone in on the uniqueness of Ohio. We have purchased this book several times to use as gifts. Most recently we sent a few copies to our daughter who is studying in Germany to give as gifts to her host family and some of the children of their friends there. They have been excited to receive it and our daughter has explained the illustrations and her home in Ohio.
