The zoophabet needlework book: An alphabet for… Tekijä: 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.… (lisätietoja)
