Description
Caldecott Honor-winner GONE WILD is a uniquely illustrated board book that introduces children to the alphabet and raises awareness for endangered animals.
This truly special alphabet book is filled with a stampede of wild animals, from the Chinese Alligator to Grevy's Zebra. They're so rare, they're endangered. David McLimans's playful illustrations transform each letter into a work of art, boldly rendered with scales, horns, and even insect wings. Once you take this eye-opening safari, you'll never look at letters or animals the same way again.
With stunning black-and-white visuals, this zoological adventure is perfect for babies and young children.

McLimans has created a black-and-white iconic representation of 26 endangered animals, and his art is striking . . . The arresting graphics and clean design will hold viewers' attention and create interest in the topic.

An impressive showcase in visual design, the letters artfully use both filled and empty space to evoke . . . their living counterparts.

The black silhouetted numbers are sinuous and compelling in this unique and imaginative description of the dangers facing ocean life today.
