A fact from Alphabet book appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 September 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that alphabet books were one of the earliest forms of American literature?

All Primers are Alphabet books?

Gee, from the redirect going from "primer(textbook)" to here, someone who isn't familiar with the terms might actually think that all primers are the same as Alphabet books (they're not). That's logically tantamount to someone typing in "fruit" and being redirected to "apple". There's also primers for mathematics, geography, geology, indeed, almost any subject. I'm becoming disillusioned at this kind of extreme austerity and minimalism at Wikipedia; this is a perfect example of how absurd it can be. Shanoman (talk) 06:29, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article is still very American in outlook and emphasis; as if all History is teleologically directed towards the eventual appearance of the United States. This is not a good thing, especially in an article with supposedly universal application.
