Photographs of all kinds of familiar objects depict a variety of shapes, including cubes, cones, and spheres

"Shelley Rotner, an accomplished photographer and a former kindergarten teacher, gently challenges children to think creatively about shapes in real life. The lyrical text provides much for readers to consider as they find circles in the sky (the moon, the sun), squares in the playground (hopscotch), and more."--

Design is all about the perception of size, shape and color; simpler is often better. Why is that? This book explains why making something complicated doesn't make it good

When his friend Circle asks him to do her portrait after praising him as a sculptor and genius, Square struggles to carve her likeness from a stone block

"From the creative force behind Circle Under Berry comes a deceptively simple picture book exploring sorting, comparatives, and quantifiers that teases the brain, twists expectations, and teaches basic ideas in unusual ways. A page-turner for first-time page-turners, this kaleidoscopic compendium shows young readers the infinite variability of perspective inherent in even our foundational concepts"--

"In this book, young readers will learn about patterns using jungle landscape as a guide."--
