D Is for Drums: A Colonial Williamsburg ABC

(3) K-3 Here the graphics, font, and contorted human figure representing each letter are suitably inspired by eighteenth-century originals, and the objects pictured--such as floorcloth and ink balls--are easily viewed at Colonial Williamsburg. Chorao uses softened colors and projects an upbeat attitude in this well-grounded book, with enough referents to make each letter interesting but not too many to crowd the pages. Glos.
