The company's dancers join limbs, twist, and grip to form 26 letters-- an alphabet made of the human body, captured in glorious color photographs. Alongside each letter, they've also composed a picture: Ants for A; Butterfly for B; Circus for C--and so on through Z, a human Zipper. Can you guess what each one shows? Pilobolus brings their creativity and hallmark visual style to a unique picture book.
This is really a very intriguing look at the alphabet. It reminds me of the Cirque de Solel troup arranging themselves in the alphabetical form. A great book for children to visually enjoy. I would say this is for K-2nd grade children to enjoy. A very colorful book.
A beautiful, clever book

Bought this for my almost 6 year-old grandson after he'd seen them perform and he loved it. So did his 8 & 9 year-old sisters because it's more than beautiful pictures and an alphabet book. It's also a puzzle.
