| Summary | "A Moral Alphabet" by Hilaire Belloc is a collection of illustrated children’s poetry written in the late 19th century. The book creatively introduces each letter of the alphabet alongside whimsical verses that impart moral lessons, covering a range of topics from honesty to the importance of education. It combines playful language with engaging illustrations, making it both entertaining and educational for young readers. The content of "A Moral Alphabet" consists of twenty-six poems, each corresponding to a letter from A to Z. Each poem features a character or scenario that illustrates a particular moral, such as the importance of telling the truth or taking responsibility for one's actions. For example, the letter "A" introduces Archibald, a truthful boy rewarded with a lovely volume, while "J" tells the story of James, who faces consequences for neglecting to pay his taxes. Through clever rhymes and humorous situations, the book encourages children to reflect on their behavior and the ethos of morality, all while enjoying the playful exploration of the English alphabet.
