The zoophabet needlework book: An alphabet for… di Leslie Tillett
Lending
Each letter contains an array of line drawings of plants and animals whose names begin with that letter. At the end of the book is a chart for each letter showing the names of the plants and animals - more than a dozen for most letters. The alphabet is all in 8 1/2" inch capital letters, and just invites tracing and coloring! NOTE: Most of the letter illustrations came originally from "The ZooAlphabet Needlework Book." by the same author.
Each of the letters is shown in caps on a choclate background with the outline of letter, plants and animals in white. The facing page gives the dictionary definition for that letter in a central square ("A is the first letter of the alphabet. . ".). Surrounding the square are the outlines of each plant and animal shown inside the letter - about a dozen or so for each. And, because it's a needlework book, numbers are given for the embroidery threads to be used. Although they are not in color, the letters are really beautiful to look at. Note: these are the same letters that are in the Dover book, "Plant and Animal Coloring Book" by the same author.… (altro)
