World famous pop artist Romero Britto brings the alphabet to life in this bold and beautiful puzzle board book! As children read the book they can guess which object is hiding under each press-out letter. One by one, with the help of the enclosed stands, little ones can stack the letters to make their own vibrant sculptures! A modern-day pop-culture icon, Romero Britto is one of the premier pop artists of our time. He is now using his talents to teach children their ABCs in his first children's book. Britto's striking artwork will dazzle both children and parents, and twenty-six press-out pieces, each shaped like a letter of the alphabet, will encourage young readers to create their own Britto-esque sculptures! The art of language has never been so appealing! (Little Simon, $12.99)

Enrique Enríquez will be giving a workshop on The Marseilles tarot’s Visual Language. In this workshop, Enríquez shares his phenomenological approach to the tarot that doesn’t focus on symbolism but rather on the way we can use our body experience to understand images. By contrasting the the medieval notion of symmetry with our current understanding of the way our brain makes meaning, we will be able to apprehend the tarot’s language of shape. Enrique Enríquez is a visual thinker and tarot reader. In 2009 his ‘Gestural Keys to the Tarot’ were published as a prologue for the Jean Dodal tarot, re-edited by Jean-Claude Flornoy. He has been called “one of the most brilliant minds in the tarot world of the 21st Century”, by members of the international Association for Tarot Studies. The British Society of Mystery Entertainers described his work as one that “challenges many preconceptions about the tarot”. The cost of this workshop is $25.
