Perfect for reading to babies and pre-schoolers, as well as for budding young readers, that will enjoy learning the alphabet through these colorful images of the animal kingdom. It includes a brief story about Charley Harper and how he began drawing as a young boy on the farm where he grew up. Colorful images like R is for Rabbit, S is for Squirrel and T is for Turtle, make identifying letters and animals memorable and fun.
This charming board book is the same size as the Charley Harper 123’s book, and the two make a perfect pair as an ideal gift for a new generation of Harper fans.
Renowned New York based designer Todd Oldham rediscovered Charley's work in 2001, and collaborated closely with him in the ensuing years. Click here to watch Todd Oldham talk about children's books from the Library's collection (with our very own NYPL librarian Jessica Pigza).
