At the Uptown Art Fair in Minneapolis we bought this alphabet book for Reve, one of our Australian grandsons. The author had a booth where he was selling his books. He also had a number book. Now I wish we had bought that one too. He autographed the book while we watched. We were most impressed with his drawings and with the little stories that go with each letter of the alphabet. You can see more of his work at his web page, Nedobeck.
We went back to where we saw the butterflies yesterday but there were not nearly as many. We were just incredibly lucky to happen upon them at their best.

maybe you can track the author on line and purchase a copy of his number book.... The drawings that you're showing are wonderful....
The next grandchild quilt I But first i have to finish the current project!'ll make will be an alphabet quilt....maybe this book would be helpful?
Alphabet books are great - we try to pick one up every new place we travel.
That is a great book! Reve is a lucky boy. I checked out the website, & just love his illustraions. They all made me laugh.
The Author must have a great imagination - you can tell just by the way he autographed the book. It will sure be a keepsake as well.
The pictures of the butterflies we just amazing. You were so lucky to get to see them all like that.
The butterflies are truly amazing. Thank goodness you had your camera with you. The letters remind me of the Letterland books DD used to "peruse" in kindgarten, only the illustrations are better.
Are you really going to try your hand at landscape quilts? Wow!
What a lovely book for a child! He is sure to be crazy about it.
