Artist Ida Pearle's alphabet book features delicately rendered, vintage-inspired cut-paper images of children at play.

Artist Ida Pearle gives readers a way to play for every letter in the alphabet. A is for act--curtains up! B is for blow--pinwheel ready! And C is for catch--butterflies beware! Ida's cut-paper collages are the perfect mix of vintage and modern, comfort and inspiration. Her images of children--on tiptoe, on a zebra, dancing, and jumping--are full of grace and flow. And her distinctive patterns and striking designs spring from page to page.

Perfect for both children and adults, this extraordinary alphabet book will add a dash of whimsy and style to any bookshelf.

IDA PEARLE illustrates stationery, album covers, and custom name prints with her delicate cut-paper collages. A Child's Day is her first children's book. She lives in New York City.
