Reviews

[Miss Sarah · Rating 2 out of 5]

A toddler and up book about rectangles and squares with real life examples.

[Erma Talamante · Rating 2 out of 5]

A board book encouraging to notice squares and rectangles around us. Plenty of room for interpretive explanations, or a quick read.

[Colette · Rating 2 out of 5]

Great beginning shape book for square and rectangle, but they are mixing terms with the wrong pictures. Cubes and squares might have worked better.
