Chopsy Baby is reviewing… A Zeal of Zebras
A Zeal of Zebras, is the first book published by graphic designers at Whoop Studios. The colourful hardback picture book introduces children to the alphabet through animals, art and collective nouns. With 26 illustrations and animals facts, the production value and whimsical art make this book suitable for adults and children alike.
A caravan of camels, an embarrassment of pandas and an implausibility of gnus really conjure up all sorts of visions in the imagination. Fortunately for the art crowd and design savvy, Whoop Studios have transferred their imagination to paper with this delightful alphabet of collective nouns.
There is plenty on the market in the way of cutesy and fun art for children, but A Zeal of Zebras stands out from the crowd with its intelligent and unique alphabet presentation.
In the same way Anorak Magazine have reinvented children’s magazines, Whoop Studios have created a children’s graphic design picture book in a similar vein. The pictures are stunning and importantly stimulating, blending striking graphic images with typography. The book offers children the opportunity to broaden their art and appreciation and inspire their creativity beyond the mundane.
Absolutely ideal as a gift for families with a child from four years of age upwards.
