Alphabet Everywhere (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780789211156)

There is a world of letters just waiting to be discovered in the world around us--if we know how to look for it. In this engaging and delightful book, photographer Elliott Kaufman reveals the secret life of the alphabet through his photographs, showing how letters can be found in things we encounter everyday. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by multiple images, each unintentionally created by the intersection of architectural details, shadows, light, or natural elements as caught by Kaufman's keen eye. Some are obvious, while others demand a little more imagination to recognize, inviting the readers to start their own game of hunting for letters! This fun approach also reinforces the notion that learning to see the familiar in new ways encourages visual literacy and creativity.
