Bookroo's summary

Little i is eager to join his friends at school, but his dot is missing! As he searches, each letter offers a quirky substitute—an acorn, a balloon, a clock—but nothing fits. Will Little i find the perfect dot and learn the alphabet along the way? Discover the surprising conclusion to his whimsical quest.

From the publisher

Little i can’t wait to meet his friends at school, but there’s just one problem: he can’t find his dot anywhere? Each letter offers a replacement–an acorn from Little a, a balloon from Little b, a clock from Little c–but nothing seems quite right. Adorable illustrations teach alphabet letters and sounds with a surprising and satisfying ending to Little i’s search.
