Summary
A visual onomatopoeia - where the word looks like the material it represents. Materials alphabet presents a collection of hand made, manufactured, and natural materials and processes. Each letter of the alphabet spells out a material that is also made out of that same material...G is for GRASS, F is for FELT, L is for LEAVES, T is for TWIG, and V is for VENEER, etc.. As a young child recognizes the material and says it out loud, they are simultaneously also beginning to read the word. The perfect ABC book for designers, architects, artists, and any creative parent looking for a visually stimulating way to teach their toddler the letters of the alphabet. The Materials Alphabet is another great addition to our growing line of unique artist created ABC board books.
