Jon L. Steinberg, a native of New Orleans, has worked in a wide variety of artistic media and disciplines throughout his life. Having raised three children, many a night was spent reading to them on every level during their early years. Now, in a world of overwhelming fantasy, Jon has created a children's alphabet primer that features twenty-six ink drawings of exotic animals close up, and pictured realistically to help toddlers learn the letters associated with each animal's name. Young readers may follow every feature in the faces of the images while making eye contact with interesting members of the animal kingdom.
