Details
From the inimitable creator of "El Deafo," the all-ages "Animal Albums from A to Z" alphabet book is a hand-wrought, high-fidelity, hilariously tongue-in-cheek homage to the golden days of album cover art.
Virginia-based author Cece Bell loves music and collecting old record albums, especially albums featuring animal artists.
The bouncing harmonies of the Barbershop Beagles, the elegant crooning of the elephant Ella Fontaine, the hilarious rhymes of the Hip-Hop Hedgehogs—all are represented in this quirky ABC book that draws on the creator’s personal collection of albums, memorabilia, and lyrics dating between 1944 and 1984, the heyday of album design.
