Toddler Alphabet Animal Storybook

I need a charming A-to-Z story that introduces toddlers to each letter through the antics of friendly animal families. Every page (or spread, if you feel that suits pacing better) should spotlight one letter, an animal whose name begins with that letter, and a short, rhythmic scene the whole family can enjoy aloud.
The tone must stay playful and age-appropriate, using simple vocabulary and lots of repetition so early readers can chime in. Illustration notes are essential because I plan to commission bright, cartoonish artwork once the text is final; please weave those notes right into the manuscript—for example, “B is for Bear: Papa Bear bakes blueberry bread…” with a parenthetical cue describing a cozy kitchen scene.
What I expect you to hand over:
• A complete 26-letter manuscript, roughly 40–60 words per page.
• Embedded illustration cues written for a cartoonish style.
• A short back-matter section with tips for parents on practicing the alphabet while reading.
Acceptance criteria:
The story must feature animal families rather than solo characters and keep the focus on one clearly named animal per letter—no forced or obscure species just to fill the alphabet. Rhymes should scan cleanly, and all text must be original.
Word doc or Google Doc format is fine; I’ll handle layout after approval.
