Shape Sorters: Colours

by Sam Lloyd

This ingenious first concept book comes with its very own set of press-out shapes—circle, square, rectangle, triangle and star, each firmly secured by a bright ribbon and sticker. Children will love the satisfaction of fitting all the chunky shapes back in the right places while learning all about colours. With a zany text and bold artwork, learning is fun!

Reviews

[Helen · Rating 4 out of 5]

What's especially great about this book is that all the different shapes that can be used like jigsaw pieces, are attached with ribbon so they can't be accidentally lost. Great interactive book for babies and toddlers. Good for taking out and about to keep little ones entertained and distracted.
