The Alphazeds / Glaser, Shirley ; Glaser, Milton., 2003

 Item
Identifier: CC-41863-43858
Scope and Contents

According to Amazon Books review, "Milton Glaser, the founder of New York magazine, and the creator of the globally recognized NY logo, is beloved by art aficionados and design enthusiasts the world over. In this beautifully designed, enchanting book for children of all ages, Milton and Shirley Glaser team up to reintroduce readers to the alphabet. The Alphazeds begins with an empty room, which begins filling up with some extraordinary-looking letters. As each letter appears on the scene, it boldly announces its personality: A is angry all the time; B couldn't be more bashful; and K comes in kicking everyone else out of the way. Will the rambunctious letters ever be able to coexist long enough to work together? Charming and utterly original, The Alphazeds cleverly teaches the alphabet and new words to children, while also introducing them to the art of typography in a fresh and enjoyable way." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
