[.ca] Bear In A Square Board Book (ISBN 1841482870)

Works on several levels:
This is a great book for a pre-reader, up to age 4 or so. It teaches rhymes, shapes, colors and numbers, all in a sturdy board book illustrated with funny colorful pictures. Very cute!

Great baby book:
I have this book as a board book, which is good because it's appropriate as a "baby's first" type of book. I just love it and my one year old just loves the bright pictures. When I put it down to get another one, he points to it again. The rhyming text is wonderful and the pictures are really cool and artsy and bright. My 3-year old also likes it because she understands how to find and count the shapes. I really recommend this one - perfect for a baby gift or first birthday!

A Cheerful Look into the World of Shapes:
This bright, colorful book with whimsical illustrations is fun to look at. The big, bold words are easy for children to read, and the rhyming text is simple. It encourages children to look for the shapes hidden within each picture. While it has no real story line, it is valuable as a tool for learning shapes and colors. It may be a bit too simplistic for some, if they are of reading age. It might be more appropriate as a board book, rather than a hardcover.
