Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
For fans of Bruno Munari's Zoo and Andrew Zuckerman's Creature ABC, Almost an Animal Alphabet is a quirky combination of alphabet and (almost) animal book, introducing young children to the letters of the alphabet via a collection of appealingly drawn critters.With a gently humorous sensibility and a unique illustrative style, Almost an Animal Alphabet is a perfect choice for pre-readers who love animals.
·Why is it called Almost An Animal Alphabet?There are actually 21 animals, 1 extinct animal, 3 non-animals (for N, U, and X), and 1 imaginary animal (for Y--can you guess? It's a yeti.)
·Alphabet books are perennial sellers, popular with parents and as gifts--this one is distinguished by its simple, elegant style and the quirky emotional appeal of the animals ·Katie's art has a textural quality and an artisanal feeling that is enhanced by the matte paper-over-board cover ofAlmost an Animal Alphabet,making this a great gift for design-obsessed parents and possibly cross-over to non-parents who like the art
