C is for cat? D is for dog? Not in this book! Here, Colossal Cornelius captures his companions with his camera and Daisy the diver dares a death-defying dip with dinosaurs. In Alphabetics, each of the alphabet s twenty-six letters is depicted with an awesome alliteration not to mention an illuminating illustration that will captivate and stimulate young minds. Although the lettered tales are meant to be humorous and fun, they also serve a commendable purpose. Complex words are introduced to expand children s vocabularies and linguistic horizons. The book includes a glossary so that readers can look up any terms that are unfamiliar to them.

Veel van het werk van schilder Jan Vanriet is geworteld in de gewelddadige geschiedenis van de 20e eeuw. Het verhaalt van oorlog en vernietiging, verdwijning en vervolging, van het lot dat mensen treft: pogroms, moord, vlucht, verlies van familie en identiteit. De Tweede Wereldoorlog, stalinisme, nazisme, Mauthausen - de familiegeschiedenis van Vanriet is er nauw mee verweven. In dit aangrijpende boek is Vanriets op oorlog en vervolging geïnspireerde werk voor het eerst bijeengebracht. Stefan Hertmans en György Konrád ontleden kristalhelder de essentie van het werk van Jan Vanriet: het verhaal van het menselijk tekort, het indrukwekkende getuigenis van een groot en gepassioneerd schilder.

Gianni Rodari and Bruno Munari have always paid great attention to the world of children, sharing the purpose of setting images and words free, and making us discover the pleasure of invention, imagination and creativity. Bringing together seemingly distant or even opposite elements, and coming up with unexpected solutions and combinations, they gave new meanings to letters and signs. Their creative paths run parallel to each other for years, and found their meeting point in many books such as Filastrocche in cielo e in terra (“Nursery rhymes up in the sky and down on earth”), La torta in cielo (“The cake in the sky”), Il libro degli errori (“The book of mistakes”), Il pianeta degli alberi di Natale (“The planet of Christmas trees”). In his illustrations for Rodari’s works, Bruno Munari uses his distinctive lightness and essential stroke to recreate all the poetry of Rodari’s stories and rhymes, elevating their imaginative side and their ability to amaze us. The book features a large selection of Munari’s drawings, accompanied by quotes from Rodari’s books, a comment by Antonio Faeti and unpublished essays by Riccardo Falcinelli and Marco Belpoliti, which set Munari’s drawings in the wider context of the history of children’s books illustration, examining the first reception and the qualities of Munari’s “scribbles”. A book to read and to look at, to complete with one’s own “skewed marks and scribbles” or, on the contrary, to use as a starting point to invent new stories, drawing inspiration from Munari’s images.
