Review

Award-winning photojournalist, Zoran Milich’s 24 black-and-white
photos of city buildings and structures make this alphabet book rather
unique. Preschoolers looking at these monochrome photos can easily find
bright red letters of the alphabet hidden in the big city architecture.
The buildings are covered with imaginary hidden treasures—geometrical
shapes and designs that are transformed into letters of the alphabet.

The City ABC Book is not just an alphabet book, it is also a work of
art that will open little eyes to seek with their imagination beyond the
black-and-white of everyday things. Recommended.
