A boy named Jimmy planted his very first garden. He was so excited, that he began to dream about it while drifting off to sleep one night. While asleep, he discovered a wonderful magical surprise. Instead of growing normal everyday kind of vegetables, Jimmy had special alphabet vegetables that only grew for him. These special vegetables had the ability to sing, talk, and instruct him about some rules that he must follow in order for them to show him how specialthey truly are. By Jimmy combining consonants and vowels correctly to spell words, he was able to get his special requests granted. When reading Jimmy's Alphabet Garden, just when you think you have the book figured out; it takes an unexpected magical turn that will leave you feeling all warm inside.

So hold on and get ready! The Alphabet may just show up in your garden one day.



My name is William N. Brown Jr. and I am the author and illustrator of Jimmy's Alphabet Garden. First I would like to give a special thanks to my wife Robin and my son Ryan, for their love and support. My interest in art started at the tender age of nine. My teacher mailed in one of my drawings to our local newspaper and two weeks later, it was printed in there Sunday edition. Mymother, Carolyn Brown, framed and hung my published drawing on our wall. For me, this was a defining moment. This helped me realize how important art was to me. As a professional artist, I have had great success exhibiting throughout this country. Now that I'm in the prime of my art career, I am excited to discover a new way to express my creativity which is through writingand illustrating children's books.



To all of my readers, I hope you will enjoy reading my book called Jimmy's Alphabet Garden. When I wrote and illustrated this book, I wanted to tap into that same magical and creative imagination that I had as a child. Even though this is my first book, I plan to be active in this field for a while. So be on the lookout for more of my books in the future...

Thank you and God bless,

William Nathaniel Brown, Jr.
