Shapes

Go on a journey of shapes with this story-in-pictures portrayed boldly, graphically and
with vibrancy.

Following on from the success of ‘Opposites’ we have, once more, created 11 spreads with a single printed graphic on an acetate sheet between them. Flip the sheet back and forth to see what the shape represents! This is another book ideal for early learning which teaches shapes in an innovative and quirky way.

“Hypnotically absorbing.” Sunday Telegraph, 27 November 2011, ‘Books for Christmas’







Reviews

Sunday Telegraph
“The simple device of an acetate page between each spread turns ‘Shapes’ (PatrickGeorge, £8.99) from a concept book for toddlers into something special. A semicircle that is a whale on one page flips over to become a railway tunnel, a green triangle becomes a tree that turns into a yellow pyramid. Hypnotically absorbing.”

Comments from TheBabyWebsite.com
“My 3 year old loves this book and it is much more than just a ‘shape’ book as you can tell the story of the package.”

“This is actually a very clever book, and there is a story to it, as you are following the package being delivered. With prompts from Mummy, Kymmy discussed the ‘story’…and was intrigued as to what was in the box.”

“From the minute we got the book my daughter has not put it down. It is beautifully done with bright colourful pictures that draw the child in (and the parents!!). Very cleverly designed with see through pages that change the pictures on the other pages. Would recommend especially with Christmas coming up. Fantastic book.”

Parents in Touch
There is lots to talk about and children can try to guess what will be revealed when the clear page is turned. Simple, uncluttered and great fun.

Bookaholics book club
It’s an extremely clever idea that makes for double the fun with each book.
