A Call for a New Alphabet

The letters in Alphabet City are happy with the status quo except for X, who calls for a new alphabet where he can have a more prominent place in words and not be the third from last all the time.  During a dream before the vote, he revisits the responsibilities of the the other letters in keeping the quirky rules of the American English language (i.e. “i” before “e” except after “c”)…and decides he likes his place after all.  A fun and informative text, with kooky, colorful, and bold graphics that are very kid-appealing.
