This heart warming children’s book blends the foundations
of language and masterworks from the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
into a lovely journey that both parent and child will enjoy. Twenty-six
works from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon accompany
delightful prose that unites the alphabet and art in bold color.
As the first ABC book published by the VMFA, it will surely be
the quintessential gift for children for years to come.
Malcolm Cormack was Paul Mellon Curator
at the VMFA in 1991 until his retirement in 2004.
