Circle Rolls

When Circle rolls into one of Triangle´s points and pops, chaos momentarily ensues until Octagon´s "Stop!" brings everyone to their senses. An effortlessly rhyming text introduces us to a collection of shapes and subtly weaves their physical characteristics into traits that both lead to and solve a would-be catastrophe. Master illustrator Serge Bloch´s shapes are accompanied by a chorus of miniature people who play along, creating the perfect complement to Barbara Kanninen´s economy of words. Worthy of comparison to Shel Silverstein´s The Missing Piece, this raucous chain of events is satisfyingly cyclical, ending just exactly where it began. Created for ages 3-5 years
