Lisa:  A few years ago, the Milwaukee Art Museum produced a children's
alphabet book using their artwork to illustrate each letter.  I am sure
other art museums have done similar projects since it is an easy way to
expose young children to different types of art.  I don't have a name to
give you but I am sure someone on the other end of the telephone will be
able to direct you.  Their general number is (414)224-3220.
