Book SynopsisThis perfect concept book teaches not only shapes, but also colors, numbers, and words--all in one bright and colorful package Learning shapes has never been as much fun as it is in this clever die-cut board book from master artist Yusuke Yonezu. All the circles in this book--big, small, and in numerous different colors--transform into a surprising array of objects when the page is turned. It's a fun concept book that will engage young children over and over.Trade Review"[One] of the more interesting items that have cropped up in my office this week . . . If you've seen Yonezu's other board books you'll know what to expect. Good thick lines and bright colors. This one has loads of cut outs as well. Plus it's hard to resist the back of the book."

Both clever and beautiful, this board book uses die-cut holes, bright colors, and clean, sophisticated graphic design to help toddlers identify all the circles around them." Maria Russo, NYTimes.com

Bodleian Library What is Round?
Book SynopsisMany things in the natural world are round – the moon, the sun, a nest, a bubble. And so are many delicious things to eat – a ball of ice-cream, a doughnut, a pie. And so too are more decorative objects such as a crown, a clock or a bauble on a Christmas tree. Through gentle verse this charming book, first published in the 1950s, explores a surprising range of items and sounds that come in round shapes. Striking and vibrant illustrations by Vladimir Bobri add humour and warmth to this joyful geometrical exploration for young children.Trade Review'As you'd expect from Bodleian Children's Books, they have a distinctly vintage feel that makes them utterly irresistible. … the striking colour palette and illustrations in 'What is Round?' will immediately transport you back to the 1950s which is when these books were first published ... It's a quirky take on the usual shape book format and the traditional text and stylish, retro pictures combine for a wonderfully whimsical mix. ... These timeless treasures would be a beautiful addition to any child's collection. We loved them!' * Armadillo Magazine *
