Alternative ABCs for rock kids and parents
I have just received the Alternative ABCs board book published by Ammo Books and it rocks. For all those hip kids and cool parents out there who want to break away from the pastel colours and conventional animal or fruit based ABCs this book is the answer. This funky ABCs board book is illustrated with original graphics graffiti style by designers Eric Ruffing and Dave Parmley of 13th Floor Design that go from Punk to Goth with references to music, street, surf and skate subcultures. F is not for Fish! No here F is for Flames, I is for Ink and S is for Skull, but E is for Earth, Y is for Yoga and R is for Recycle, Reduce and Reuse. This is the ABCs book for future skaters and rock guitarists but also for earth lovers and environmentalists!
Obviously this won’t appeal to everyone, after all the title is “Alternative ABCs”, but it will please all those unconventional parents always on the lookout for funky things for their cool kids.
My son is now past the ABC stage and normally he would no longer be interested on ABC books, but he was quite taken with this one because of the unusual word association and the graffiti style illustrations.
Want it! Thanks!
