A 32 page board book in which the basic shapes (square, circle, triangle) are intruded on by some wacky characters; an emu who pushes a pancake wagon, for example! Learn your shapes and have some fun along the way!

From The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books: Concept books come with expectations, and everybody knows them. Mastering basic shapes is a key element for preschool readiness, and everybody knows that. Kraegel breaks, most delightfully, from the program, throwing his audience off balance with one change-up and then another, until this rudimentary lesson is so swamped with giggles that tykes might forget they’re learning.

Available at your local bookstore or at Indiebound, Barnes and Noble, Target, or Amazon
