Shape Space

(Clarion Books, 1992) Ages 3-7.

A young dancer plays with a collection of large, colorful geometric shapes to create imaginative structures, a castle and a dancing partner. Kids love to chant the snappy rhyming text. 

“According to this bouncy concept book, learning geometric shapes can be as much fun as dancing about a room...Falwell’s exuberant text makes good use of repeating the proper shape names, while her bold designs on ample white space provide many opportunities for their identification...The enthusiastic guide through these pages will keep readers trying to guess what comes next.”  —Publishers Weekly

“Pleasant and playful...works as an entertaining picture book as well as a first exposure to basic geometry.”  —School Library Journal
