Animal Alphabet
A delightful alphabet book without words, and with truly beautiful pictures. Illustrated by the author.
ISBN-13: 9780718828448 |
Bert Kitchen's beautiful and delicate paintings of the twenty-six animals which make up this book are hypnotising and compelling. The book has no words on any of the pages of the alphabet and the reader has the challenge of guessing the names of the animals which can be checked with the words on the last page.
Apart from providing children with an enjoyable guessing game, this is a most beautiful book which will be always a pleasure to dip into.
