The Perfect Fit
Book Review
Within a few days Ādam has been able to learn and recognise some new shape names which is fantastic.
Ādam loved this book and has asked to read it again. The colourful pictures with small amounts of written text was great for capturing Ādam’s attention and keeping him engaged. The speech bubbles were interesting and made the shapes come alive. Within a few days Ādam has been able to learn and recognise some new shape names which is fantastic.
Amazingly this book manages to incorporate shapes, colours and an underlying theme of appreciating and accepting differences between us. There is so much to learn from here. It was a good starting point for having a discussion around inclusivity within our family reading time.
This book will be suitable for a wide age range with even the youngest able to comprehend and gain from it as well as deeper meanings for the older child. All incorporated within a lovely story that is great for capturing the attention of the little ones.
About the Book
This picture book is an entertaining story, but it is also a great way to introduce shapes to young children.
No matter how hard she tries, Triangle doesn’t roll like the circles, or stack like the squares…so she sets off to find friends that look exactly like her. But when she finds the other triangles, playtime isn’t as fun. She misses the shapes that roll and stack; she misses being different. So she starts a new quest, one that gets all of the different shapes playing and having fun together!
