Johnson has created a remarkable, sophisticated children's alphabet book that doubles as a coffee table volume for grown-ups. After combing the dictionary for words, Johnson created pieces of art that reflected the words, and have a letter embedded in each work as well. With a clever, clever text accompanying each piece, works include a stunning, enormous magenta ‘mattress' pile for M and thousands of dominos crazily combined, hiding the letter D. This spectacular book is a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book for 2008. minimize
