Just when you're wondering if you need another alphabet book (yes) along comes Z is for Moose by Kelly Bingham, illustrated by Paul Zelinsky. This book (with help from Moose?) charges its way to the top of the pile. It is hilarious, the illustrations are big, fun, energetic, messy, the acceptance of Moose in the inclusive resolution with the letter Z is so complete you cheer at the end.
