Animal ABC’s Picture Book

Animal ABC’s is picture book work-in-progress collaboration with singer-songwriter Brian Vogan. His words, my illustration. Read (or sing!) along as we make our way through the alphabet from A to Z. All illustrations are made from recycled magazines and junk mail because trees are for monkeys and squirrels! Look closely and you’ll find lots of little surprises like buttons, baskets, marbles, spoons and more.
