Each letter of the
alphabet is beautifully rendered by master illustrator Norman Messenger. This book is nothing less than exquisite!
Each letter of the alphabet is beautifully drawn, using as design elements
everything from caterpillars to tools, rope to lizards, and buildings to
shellfish. Each letter drawing, both upper and lower case, uses muted colors
with what appears to be a wash. While this book is certain to engage the
youngest of book lovers, it would also be an excellent gift or coffee-table
book. It can also be a useful resource for art students.
Summary: Each letter of
the alphabet is beautifully rendered by master illustrator Norman
Messenger.
