But sometimes, U wants some time to herself—even though Q is lonely because he doesn’t always fit in with the other letters without her. When the rest of the alphabet notices the split, they decide they want to do the same. And utter chaos ensues!

“This witty text incorporates lots of pertinent examples with blends and digraphs highlighted in red. An amusing and applicable story.” — Kirkus Reviews
“For beginning readers grappling with the intricacies of both phonics and friend groups, this picture book tackles the two together. Entertaining.” — Horn Book Magazine
