PreS-K–Dive into a world of shapes with this engaging seek-and-find board book. Rhyming pages tell the story of a daycare class as they play throughout the day, introducing shapes through child-friendly, bright images. “We stack squares to make a town. Let’s build it high, then knock it down!” Alongside common shapes, additional ones like an arc, star, moon, and heart are presented.

VERDICT This is a great addition to the concept shelves.
