THE SHAPE OF THINGS

Until you add a roof,
Two windows and a door,
Then it's much, much more!
An introduction to the concept of shapes that make up the world around us.

I SPY SHAPES IN ART

I spy with my little eye...a square, a heart, ten circles. Each magnificent painting in this book has a different shape for you to find -- some are easy, but some are difficult. And when you have found them all, there are lots of other interesting things to spot.

GREGORY AND THE MAGIC LINE
Bin #2
Gregory had a pencil, and in the pencil lived a magic line, and the line wanted to go for a walk. The line wanted to make straight lines and wiggly ones. It wanted to make circles and squares. It wanted to draw houses and streets and animals and people with funny faces. It wanted reds and blues and yelloes and greens. Faster and faster it drew -- until it drew Gregory right into the pictures. A wonderful story that explores the world of line, shape and colours and everything you need to make a painting.
THE BUTTON BOX
Bin #1
An imaginative little boy explores the many pleasures that can be found in -- and made from -- his grandmother's button box.

ROUND IS A MOONCAKE : A BOOK OF SHAPES
