Told in rhyme, This Book explains exactly what it is—a book about numbers, shapes, colors, and more! Using simple explanations and told from a clever “meta” perspective, both parents and kids alike will delight in its playfulness.

Reviews:

“Relentlessly enthusiastic, this self-aware book charges through, informing readers about its many snippets of information … Like its narrative, the cartoon illustrations are also resolutely cheery, drawn with brilliant candy-colored hues and a touch of kawaii-like cuteness. Wide, round eyes and enormous grins personify the gamut of concepts, from the ‘BIG and small’ kittens to the vivid paint splotches.” –Kirkus Reviews
