The Story of Shapes

[Allyson]

Get ready for your book club’s next obsession. The Story of Shapes by Robb Killen isn’t just a clever concept, it’s a masterpiece of storytelling that captures the beauty of diversity, the challenge of pride, and the miracle of coming together. Inside the charming world of Shapely, Squares build their towers, Circles roll through life with joy, and Triangles balance between order and imagination. But when disaster strikes, everything changes. What unfolds is an unforgettable tale of courage, connection, and transformation, a story that reminds readers that real strength doesn’t come from similarity, but from unity in difference.

Every chapter bursts with meaning. The Squares’ fear of change, the Circles’ restless spirit, the Triangles’ creativity, each reflects a piece of the human condition. Book club members will see themselves in every shape, and that’s where the magic happens. The conversations this story sparks are incredible, about inclusion, empathy, community, identity, and what it means to truly belong.

This is the book that doesn’t just entertain, it elevates. It’s poetic, funny, thought-provoking, and timeless. It’s the kind of story that fills the room with smiles, thoughtful silence, and the occasional tear. The Story of Shapes is not just a book club pick, it’s a shared experience your members will talk about for weeks.

This is not a book for teens but a picture book, so Allyson, you placed your review in a wrong and also not appropriate thematic folder. And yes, this also looks like a promotional post and especially since I have found the exact same one in multiple groups.

For this time and only this time, I will move the entire topic to the author/promotional folder (as I do think it belongs there), but any further similar promotional posts (even if you are not the author) will unfortunately have to be deleted.
