Alphabeasties – Book

Alicia sent me this snazzy looking alphabet book that I really want to get our baby girl. Every animal in the book is formed by the letter that the animal's name begins with. So you'll find a kangaroo formed out of kkk's or an elephant formed out of eee's. Pretty clever idea. And hey I say it's never too early to get my baby thinking about typography and design, heh. Now that I think about it, being a typography aficionado, this book might be more for me than her.

Illustration and design done by Sharon Werner and Sarah Forss of design firm Werner Design Works.

The Parrot AR Drone

The AR Drone quadricopter comes with two on board cameras, Wi-Fi connectivity, and believe it or not, you control it with your iPhone or iPod touch. This has to be the ultimate big kid toy. More info here.

Illustrator/Designer: Jessica Hische

I'm loving the designs from Jessica Hische, and I want this poster for my little baby girl's room. Our baby is only a couple months away, and I am always looking for stuff to buy her now. This is not a good sign, she already has me wrapped around her finger :) 

Also check out her newest blog, the Daily Drop Cap, which showcases an illustrative initial that she creates and posts everyday.

Thanks to Courtney & Jessica

Bookcase

Too bad I only have enough books to fill up the Pacific and Mountain time zones. I guess I need to wait before getting this.
