The Whole World of Songs and Rhymes by Gerlinde Wiencirz, illustrated by Yayo Kawamura
This compendium of children’s songs and rhymes contains a whole world of witty illustrations by Berlin-based illustrator and designer Yayo Kawamura. She used the learning typeface ABeZeh Sans throughout the book, accompanying music notation, giving hints on fingerplay and orientation in the list of contents. ABeZeh Slab is used for headlines, set in all caps. Also ABeZeh Icons come into play: they are included in the illustrations to divide the different chapters.
