Dahlov Ipcar's Farmyard Alphabet by Dahlov Ipcar

For the first time in more than twenty years, legendary Maine artist and author Dahlov Ipcar has a new book. Dahlov Ipcar's Farmyard Alphabet is her first board book, pairing her fresh, original verses with timeless illustrations from eleven of her books, many of which are out of print. From apples and barns to vegetables and wood stoves, the unique text and bold, bright artwork celebrate farm life in Ipcar's inimitable style. Strong proud horses, fat happy pigs, and playful kittens will charm toddlers, and Ipcar fans will be delighted to see illustrations from The Wild Whirlwind, Bright Barnyard, and Black and White, as well as those from eight other books.

Dahlov Ipcar, a Maine artist with a career spanning more than three-quarters of a century, has written and drawn more than thirty children's and young adult novels, beginning with Margaret Wise Brown's The Little Fisherman in 1945 and including The Cat at Night, Hardscrabble Harvest, and My Beautiful Christmas Tree. Her original and distinctively modern style influenced how artwork is used in children's literature. She was born in Vermont in 1917 and grew up in New York City. In 1923, Ipcar's parents, sculptor William Zorach and artist Marguerite Zorach, purchased a farm on Georgetown Island, where she first summered until moving with her husband Adolph in 1937. She continues to live on the farm and paint practically every day. Dahlov Ipcar's Farmyard Alphabet, a board book with fresh text and drawings drawn from eleven of her previously published books, was published in 2010 and was her first new book in more than twenty years.
