About This Item
This book includes the ABC verse in which letters represent through professions. The verse is accompanied by the illustration with the ABC city. Each profession from the verse has a pair at the illustration. It's interesting that this illustration was created in the Wimmelbook style.
The author of the verse, Irina Tokmakova (1929-2018), was a talented writer of children's books, poet, playwright and wife of the illustrator Lev Tokmakov. She also was a member of the Hans Christian Andersen Award and served on the IBBY Executive Committee.
The book was illustrated by May Miturich (Miturich-Khlebnikov, 1925–2008), an artist, nephew of futurist poet Velimir Khlebnikov and son of avant-garde artist Vera Khlebnikova. He studied at the Moscow Polygraphic Institute, where later he taught. In 2005 Mirutich was awarded the Japanese Order of the Rising Sun.
