Overview

A highly subjective, not at all comprehensive, alphabetical celebration of the Old Forest in Overton Park, Memphis, Tennessee. This hand lettered ABC book depicts the flora and fauna of the Old Forest, based on the sketchbooks of the author/illustrator. The alphabetical format, bright colors, and emphasis on pictures over text will appeal to children, but the book is aimed at anyone who enjoys forests, nature, sketching, and graphic books.
