I was looking for a book to use in the art room to illustrate ABC books. What could be more perfect?(And I didn't pay full retail since I bought it used!)

I got this book for my 5mo old nephew and he LOVES looking at all the pictures - and so do I! Beautiful book! Love it!

My students love this exploration of art mediums and the alphabet. We always love creative ways to explore the ABCs.

Such a cute and clever book on the many ways you can create art. The rhymes are great, and the illustrations are beautiful and unique. My child is an aspiring artist and loves reading it together. But all kids benefit from art and should be taught that it's about having fun and expressing themselves rather than making something "perfect." This book is fun to read but will also give them ideas on new things they can create.

A beautiful book crammed with beautiful ideas. This could keep a child, or adult, busy for years.
