## Description

From Cricket to Pumpkin, from Hummingbird to Yam - this is a photographic alphabet showing Jamaica in all its colourful diversity. In vibrant rhyming verse, Benjamin Zephaniah explores some of the sights, sounds and tastes of Jamaica, from the bustling capital of Kingston, to the peaceful and serene Blue Mountain. A perfect way to introduce children to this small and beautiful Caribbean island with a big heart.

Review: Excellent for young Jamaican kids - I found this title while looking around for culturally relevant educational books for my grandson who is just under 3 years old. Most of the alphabet books available in Jamaica are produced elsewhere and reference things that are not readily recognized by our children. When I saw 'J is for Jamaica' I figured it must be available locally, but I couldn't find it. I'm glad I sent off for it because my grandson just loves it. He reads it everyday. It is colorful, and the illustrations are actual photos, not drawings or cartoons! I would recommend this book to any Jamaican parent or educator, or anyone who wants to teach their kids about Jamaica.
Review: Perfect for Young Ones Headed to Jamaica for the First Time! - Picked this up for my 7 year old to allow him to become more familiar with the landscape and culture of Jamaica. Very good pictures, and a great, "everyday" Jamaica portrayal. It did not focus on beaches, resorts, etc... I loved it for that reason!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ beautiful pictures
*by R***E on April 24, 2012*

This book had beautiful pictures, but the rhymes felt a bit forced in parts. I enjoyed sharing it with my 5-y-o son.
