A Is for Awesome is an alphabet book with an edge. Bursting with colour, energy and life, each spread offers a rhythmic phrase and an abundance of artwork illustrating the featured letter. The message of dreaming big and living life to its fullest permeates every page, inviting readers to “learn some new letters that you can use to make magical words and share big ideas". Little children will love pouring over the illustrations and naming what they can see, and coming up with their own rhymes and words. Dallas Clayton’s trademark illustrations are retro and quirky – the book is a gorgeous, uplifting gift for children and adults alike and makes for an Awesome (mini) coffee table book!
Dallas Clayton is the author and illustrator of the critically acclaimed Awesome Book series (Amazon Encore), as well as the poetry collection Make Magic! Do Good! (Candlewick). Hugely popular in various media and Hollywood circles, Dallas's first book, An Awesome Book became a favourite among the Hollywood elite, featured on Gwyneth Paltrow's parenting blog GOOP and touted by Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake; and read aloud by Joaquin Phoenix in his mockumentary "I'm Still Here".
