Publisher's Note
"The fine art of the full-color alphabet book is raised to new heights. . . . Kids will love the outrageous illustrations, and get a kick out of the letter hunt."--Child Magazine "So extraordinary, so extravagantly illustrated, so astonishingly alliterative, so thoroughly delightful that any child who does not soon possess it may rightly feel his education has been shamefully neglected."--San Francisco Chronicle More than 2 million copies of Animalia have been sold around the world, making Graeme Base's amazing alliterative alphabet book one of the most beloved titles of the past decade.Animalia's incredible imaginary world intrigues readers of all ages, whether or not they know their ABCs. On each new page are hidden objects and ideas: start with "A is for An Armoured Armadillo Avoiding an Angry Alligator" and you'll find aprons, ants and aces, Atom-brand anchovies, arches and accordions, an adder ambling around an album, an airplane, and an apple. The rest of the alphabet is just as much fun!Australian author/artist Graeme Base's immensely popular publications include The Eleventh Hour: A Curious Mystery, The Sign of the Seahorse, My Grandma lived in Gooligulch, and The Discovery of Dragons, along with a coloring book, a diorama, and a pop-up book, all of which are available from Abrams.

This amazing alliterative "alphabet-alia" provides hours of fun for youngsters of all ages. "The fine art of the full-color alphabet bok is raised to new heights . . . Kids will love the outrageous illustrations, and get a kick out of the letter hunt".--Child Magazine.

Industry Reviews
PW called this intricately detailed, oversized alphabet book "a delightful visual feast," praising Base's "meticulous" and "far-reaching" artistry. All ages. (Oct.)
