B Is For Bibliophile

This stylish ABC book about books and book-making is a wry, witty compendium, pervaded by a love of books.

“A book about books for book lovers of all ages. B Is For Bibliophile is the meta-abecedarium for all the current and future teachers, librarians, writers, and readers in your life.” —Brian Selznick, Caldecott-winning creator of The Invention of Hugo Cabret

B is for bibliophile.
D is for dog-eared.
M is for marginalia.
V is for verso.

In these pages, book lovers of all ages are invited to tour through the ABCs of books, with cartoon protagonist Guy as their guide. Excitingly, the book also works to perform what it shares, giving us a gatefold to define gatefold, a die-cut to exemplify what a die-cut is, and so on. 

Cleverly conceived and beautifully made, this book is both delightful and edifying—a sheer pleasure to hold in the hand and leaf through. This is a fully illustrated book about books that belongs on the shelves of book lovers both young and old.
