A MARTINEZ, HOST:
Good morning. I'm A Martinez.
Lots of big kids like AC/DC. Now there's something for the little ones, too. The band, whose guitarist performs in a schoolboy uniform, has inspired a children's book. "The AC/DC AB/CD High Voltage Alphabet" is written for preschoolers. All letters feature band references, starting with, A is for Angus, who thinks it's good luck to wear a school uniform and walk like a duck.
(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "HIGHWAY TO HELL")
AC/DC: (Singing) I'm on the highway to hell.
MARTINEZ: From "Highway To Hell" to "Highway To Spell." It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
