The letter A goes AAAAH! Like when I welcome a friend that I have been missing . . . The letter B goes B' B' B' B', like the bubbles in a bottle that I dip in the bath . . . The letter C goes K' K' K', like when I break the shell of a boiled egg . . . The sound of letters is an alphabet book unlike any other! This beautifully illustrated, colorful book of letters teaches the sound that the different letters make in a unique and fresh way.
Jeanne Boyer studied philosophy. She has two children and lives in Paris. Today, she writes children's books: documentaries, game books, novels, poems and albums. She is notably the author of the Philofolies collection (Pere Castor), and of the Superfille (Magnard) and Abracadachat (Rageot) series and her stories appear regularly in the youth press. Julien Billaudeau was born in Chambray-les-Tours in 1983, with his head in the stars. After drawing and painting just about anything and everything, he left for Paris to study at the Ecole Estienne where he learned illustration, but also wood engraving, lithography and screen printing and entered the section image printed at the Arts-Deco in Paris. After spending a few months in Asia discovering Chinese wood engraving, he illustrated children's books, exhibited his drawings and led workshops with teenagers.
