Bears love squares. Not rectangles. Not triangles. And certainly not circles. But there is one other shape that Bear might love just as much...
This sweet, funny picture book is a great way to introduce shapes to young readers. Every page includes a few basic facts about shapes which, because of the rhyme scheme, fit naturally into the story without it feeling didactic. There are real world applications for the shapes too, such as balls and triangular mountains. This story would be excellent at home or in an early years setting.
The illustrations are bright and the shapes pop on the page. They're funny too, and had my three-year-old giggling from page one.
Thank you Bloomsbury for sending me an advanced digital copy to review.
Bear Loves Squares is written by Caryl Hart and illustrated by Edward Underwood
