"Shape Scapes, written by Magda Gargulakova and Stepanka Sekaninova, illustrated by Lukas Fibrich, is perfect for young children, but can interest even adults. It’s obvious that shapes are everywhere, but taking the time to see them in the everyday, picking the extraordinary out of the ordinary, is something that not everyone tries to do. Watching shapes stand out before your very eyes can be intoxicating and especially exciting for young children who are just learning to see everything that lies before them. Learning to see them and discover how they provide space and offer boundaries is what this book aims to do." —Beth Rodgers, YA Books Central
"A fun way to learn more about shapes and the world we see everyday." —Vicky Tandy, Athol Public Library, Youth Services Book Review
"The illustrations really make this book special. Basic shapes are everywhere, and the vibrant, cartoony imagines bring them to life!" —Sarah S., Woods Hole Public Library
