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

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.

O.E. (Zoë) Zelmanovich is a lover of books, words, and ideas. They currently work as a freelance book indexer and have also been a rare-book appraiser, a library school dropout, a co-owner of a radical bookstore, and a member of many book clubs. In their nonbook life, they are or have been an activist, a mediator, a yoga teacher, a bicyclist, a facilitator, a dancer, a nanny, a communard, a gardener, a parent, and a crew member of a floating sculpture. Lauren Simkin Berke is a lifelong visual artist, tinkerer, and lover (and maker) of books who works as both an illustrator and an educator. Though mainly working at drawing, painting, printmaking, and bookbinding, Berke can often be found teaching, reading, writing, futzing, and pondering. Berke has illustrated many book covers and book reviews, and has created a plethora of artist’s books and zines. They are also the illustrator of Were I Not a Girl: The Inspiring and True Story of Dr. James Barry.
