Self-published children’s book offers kids the opportunity to ‘explore, to experience’ God’s creation — one letter at a time.

Stephen Barany is a visual arts professor at Holy Cross College in Notre Dame, Indiana, teaching graphic design courses and seminars. His new self-published children’s book, Alphabet Parade: An Alliterative Alphabet Adventure, recently garnered a strong response on Kickstarter, blowing well past its modest $1,000 goal to earn more than $16,000.
Barany spoke with the Register about his philosophy as a Catholic artist and illustrator and why he believes his new book — though not immediately obvious as a “Catholic” work — is an expression of his faith and provides valuable “pre-evangelization” enrichment for Catholic families. The book is available for preorder now.
