Daedal Doodle by Victor Stabin

We just had this author/illustrator at our school for Literacy Week.

Vain snails, a small-headed monster looking for love, and sub-atomic sheep captivate readers through imagery, quirky words, and illuminating definitions. Explore letters A to Z to discover the true meaning of an Eohippus’s Epizoon and what on earth Ganoid Gubbins might be!

Inspired by reading “ABC” books to his three year old daughter Skyler, his love of words, and his incessant inability to stop doodling, he unflinchingly created the improbable alliterative combinations and illustrations that inhabit. 


Here is a video of an interview and his creative process - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEzuJk9C4iM
