About this ebook

In ELEPHABET, Yusof Gajah shows his skill and inventiveness with his beloved 'gajah' to express his thoughts, both playful and philosophical, on everyday life. A treasure of a book, with each letter of the alphabet beautifully illustrated in Yusof Gajah's inimitable signature style, this book entertains as well as provokes. A book to share and to keep!

Commendations

"Elephabet, a portmanteau of the words “elephant” and “alphabet”, is an elementary revision of the alphabet for grown-ups and children. …Yusof wants his readers to return to the basics of life. His philosophy of life is summed up in the book, which features elephants perched and morphed to form the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet. The enchanting paintings also reveal hidden symbols upon closer observation…" - Grace Chin, The Edge
