Mira, Mira Shapes - by Lourdes Heuer (Board Book)

Book Synopsis

Written in both English and Spanish for little ones who are learning basic concepts, Mira Mira Shapes is an exciting look into simple shapes via a city landscape.

Mira, mira!
What do you see?
Look for the shapes
across the city.

In this English and Spanish board book, little ones will learn to identify basic shapes whilst exploring a shape-filled, exciting city landscape! Each spread will highlight a shape that can be found in the city; triangular safety cones, rectangular windows, squared city blocks, and so much more! Just like Mira Mira Colors, each spread will include a shaped die-cut that offers a sneak-peek into the next spread and text that encourages the reader to mira, mira (look, look) at the upcoming shape they will learn about.

With sweet, welcoming art by award-winning illustrator Juliana Perdomo and Lourdes Heuer's bouncing, approachable English-Spanish text, this introduction to shapes is perfect for those seeking a little more in a primer board book.
