The product I'll be reviewing this time is:
Yeap! A board book by the title of “Alternative ABCs”! I have been given this wonderful opportunity to review this board book through the Business2Blogger program and the contact person, Ms. Sara DeGonia is a wonderful person to work with! She has been providing me updates and help all the way from the point I submit my request for the book review until the book was delivered safe to my hand half way across the globe!
(Excerpts from the website):
This “Alternative ABCs” board book features original, colorful, and graphic illustrations and typography by Southern California based designers Eric Ruffing and Dave Parmley of 13THFLOOR.
Aesthetically borrowing from street, surf, skate, and music subcultures, the custom design and typography beautifully spell out this unique alphabet. From Calligraffiti to Pin-Striping, and from Goth to Punk, this little book crosses genres and is sure to create a buzz. Further details of the board book:
* ISBN: 9781934429396, Dimension: 6 x 6 inches and number of pages: 56 pages
The moment I read about the opportunity to review this book (without even seeing the pictures of it!) I was hooked! I mean, how often you get to see something other than the normal A for Apple, B for Ball, C for Cat type of board books?!! I’m not sure about you but this is the first time I read about this concept! Just look at the pictures of Ben below enjoying the book when it arrives!
The book also instils a sense of responsibility in us, as you can see, R is for Reduce, Reuse and Recycle! How uber cool is that?!
Ben flipping to the next alphabet for more!
Picture above of Ben, obviously intrigued with the vibrant colors used!
What I like about this board book?
* A different concept towards getting your child to learn alphabets
* Vibrant colors used for each alphabet which attracts and caught your attention
* Creative illustrations used where some of them actually helps instil preservations and love towards environment and our planet earth!
* The thickness of each page is just right (flimsy and thin books always get chewed by Ben and doesn’t last more than 1 week)
* The dimension of the board book is also just nice, not too big that I get tired holding them for Ben or too big for Ben to carry around.
