From Booklist
Ages 3-5. This sprightly introduction to shapes shows children how circles, squares, and triangles are parts of things they see every day. "A square is just a square, / Until you add a roof, / Two windows and a door, / Then it's much, much more!" The verse and a solid square appear on the right half of the two-page spread; a simple house appears on the left. Among the book's delights are its appealing, crisp design, clever paper-collage art, and its choice of kid-appealing subjects (like kites to illustrate the diamond shape) to grab attention. Lots of uses for this one, but it can easily be read and viewed just for fun.
