Photographs of familiar objects such as chair, barrettes, and manhole cover present a study of rounded and angular shapes.
Book Synopsis
Geometric shapes are all around us! In this wordless book from top-selling picture-book creator Tana Hoban, children learn to look closely to find them. Circles, squares, stars, triangles, hearts, and rectangles--how many can you see?
Simple, clear, practical, Shapes, Shapes, Shapes is a fun way for children to learn. Sit together with a child at home or in a preschool classroom and use this book to enjoyably teach this core preschool/kindergarten skill: geometry.
Dozens of real-world photographs of buildings, shoes, people at work, and more help young readers build observation skills as they hunt for shapes hidden in plain sight.
"This marvelous book from a top notch photographer gives children the opportunity to see the world around them, not just look at it," said Publishers Weekly. "Do your eyes a favor, and don't miss this one," wrote School Library Journal.
From the Back Cover
Whenever you are -- inside or outside -- there are shapes to discover. And with Tana Hoban's help you will begin to see them. Look around. How many circles, squares, stars, triangles, hearts, and rectangles can you see?
They are everywhere!
