About the event
Arthur Geisert's "Pigs A-Z" is a delightful and intricately illustrated children's book that takes readers on an alphabetical journey featuring a charming cast of pigs. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a different scene in which the pigs engage in various whimsical activities. Geisert's detailed, etching-style illustrations are filled with humor and creativity, inviting readers to explore the images closely to find all the hidden details.
The pigs are depicted in a variety of settings, from everyday life scenarios to more fantastical situations, all cleverly tied to the corresponding letter of the alphabet. For example, for the letter "A," the pigs might be assembling something, while "B" could show them baking. The book is a visual treat, with each page offering a new, unexpected twist on what pigs can do, making it enjoyable for both children and adults. Geisert's unique artistic style, characterized by fine lines and meticulous attention to detail, adds to the charm and appeal of the book.
