Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Children are fascinated by shapes and colors and the world is full of amazing shapes, colors, and sizes. Look and you can see that a wing on a flea is a triangle, a ruler is a rectangle, and the wheels on a truck are circles. Using vivid illustrations and a simple rhyming text, noted author/illustrator Ed Emberley introduces the concept of shapes and sizes to curious young children as he suggests they view the world in a new and exciting way.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exceptional book about shapes!
This book has bold, eye-catching pictures and wonderful rhyming text. I read this to a preschool class and they loved it. It can serve as an intro or review of shapes and also as a way to show how to put simple shapes together to make more complex pictures. At the end, there's a section that emphasizes how to put shapes together to make a picture, such as a clown.
