DESCRIPTION:
More like *Shapes* Zoo Michael Boyd I expected this to be a book that taught about colors, & while it is colorful, it does NOT teach about colors. It teaches about SHAPES - a good thing to learn about, certainly, but not the concept for which I bought this book. I'm giving it 3 stars because our daughter does like it, & she has learned f. Interesting book with animal shapes Breezy Was not expecting each shape cut out to be a different animal as the pages turn. Very interesting book, for me and my toddler. Great book for teaching shapes and colors.. "Not interesting at all" according to Amazon Customer. Figures are not really obvious and dull to be honest.
Boldly designed pages easily carry to the rear of the room during story hours, and brilliant juxtapositions of vibrant primary colors will make children's eyes tingle. While the tiger and lion are not easy to identify in their geometrically shaped components, children will readily name the seven others and will delight in identifying both animals and shapes. --Susan Hepler, formerly at Windsor Public Library, Conn.Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. Each configuration is an animal: a tiger's face (a circle shape) and two ears disappear with a page turn to leave viewers with a square within which is a mouse. . The mouse's square frame, removed, reveals a fox. That's not all. On the reverse of the turned page is the shape cutout previously removed with the shape's printed name. From School Library Journal PreSchool-
I know animals and you do too; make some new ones for your zoo.. Shapes and colors in your zoo, lots of things that you can do. Heads and ears, beaks and snouts, that's what animals are all about
