Frogphabet is a zany Croatian alphabet book in rhyme, with a frog as the main protagonist. The illustrations are somewhat different from the rest of my work, but it’s been a great fun working on them. |

Žabeceda je šašava slovarica u stihu, sa žapcem kao glavnim protagonistom. Ilustracije stilski ponešto odskaču od ostatka mojih radova, no bilo je jako zabavno raditi na njima.

Mihaela Velina, the author of the rhymes, and I decided against strictly didactic approach since – in our experience – most didactic picture books aren’t a lot of fun. So, in Frogphabet we tried to achieve both: to create a picture book that is both didactic and fun. |

Mihaela Velina, autorica teksta, i ja nismo se odlučili za strogo didaktički pristup, jer prema našim iskustvima didaktičke slikovnice u većini slučajeva nisu pretjerano zabavne. U Žabecedi smo pokušali postići oboje: da slikovnica istovremeno bude i poučna i zabavna. |

The illustrations were painted in oils and digitally. The book was also designed by me. |
|
Ilustracije su naslikane uljenim bojama i digitalno. Također, knjigu sam i grafički oblikovao. |
