If Shapes Could Talk is a cute illustrated book in rhyming verse by Rella B. Released 24th Oct 2023, it's 40 pages and is available in paperback and ebook formats.
The illustrations throughout are cute, colorful, and full of small details which invite readers to spend a little more time looking at the pictures and thinking about the text. The story has thought provoking takeaways about comparing ourselves to others, the dangers of jealousy, and what it means to be a friend.
The text is very simple and should be accessible to even the youngest readers. The characters are diverse and have different shapes and colors which are mirrored in the descriptions.
It's a valuable little book on several levels and will provide opportunities with a teacher/facilitator/parent/babysitter to find and identify shapes, colors, and some beginning learning about emotions and how families can differ from one another.
Four and a half stars. It would be a nice choice for school or public library acquisition, gift giving, and home use.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes
