Celebrated Halifax artist Yolanda Poplawska has created twenty-six distinctly Haligonian scenes to accompany the letters of the alphabet, from A for anchor to Z for zonked!

Children will be enchanted by Poplawska's colourful and contemporary illustrations, which depict locales such as the gazebo at the Public Gardens, the lighthouse at McNabs' Island, buskers juggling on the watefront, rowing on Lake Banook, and many, many more. Words chosen are common nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

This new paperback edition extends the audience to toddlers and preschoolers.

Yolanda Poplawska's illustration and design work has appeared in print, media, galleries, and in several picture books, including the popular Halifax ABC, Halifax Harbour 123, Theodore Too of Halifax series, and The Magical Christmas Lights of Old Nova Scotia by Bruce Nunn. A graduate of McKenzie College of Arts, Yolanda lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
