“A Is for Alligator…And Other Information to Entertain You,” by Jackie Adrian
About the book: Let’s learn our ABCs, but let’s make it beautiful! An ABC book to learn, delight, and start conversations. In Jackie Adrian’s signature, acrylic, collage style, she has brought her collages to life with the alphabet. The letters, paired with vivid collage, capture the focus of the young learner.
Each letter collage is detailed with a small, few sentence long story about the letter subject. “B is for Bird. Meet Wes. He likes to give compliments. By the way, you are looking so lovely today.” The descriptions are whimsical, a little off-kilter, and always inclusive. “F is for Flamingo. Meet Ruby. They like to swim with crocs. Nelson is their best friend.” Visit www.jackieadrian.com for an ABC flashcard set which pairs with the book.

Jackie Adrian shares: Creating art is playtime for me, whether it is writing, illustrating, or working on a new surface pattern design. If you know my art, you know I layer color, pattern, and push the limits on what can play nicely together, creating something entirely fresh and vibrant. I am inspired by travel – trying to explore new places a few times a year – which always brings me unique perspectives I want to share through color, shapes, or words.
I believe in making a life worth celebrating, so being surrounded by interiors that echo the energy I want to feel inspires my designs. Maximum color, design risks, and whimsy are welcome here.
I love wholesaling, licensing, and collaborations, so let’s offer something beautiful together!
