From the award-winning team behind Sam and Dave Dig a Hole, and illustrated by Jon Klassen, the Kate Greenaway-winning creator of This Is Not My Hat and I Want My Hat Back, comes the first tale in an exciting new trilogy. Meet Triangle. He is going to play a sneaky trick on his friend, Square. Or so Triangle thinks… Visually stunning and full of wry humour, here is a perfectly-paced treat that flips the traditional concept book, and approaches it from a whole new angle.
There are three separate books in this trilogy of sublimely illustrated picture books where the main characters are shapes; Triangle, Square and Circle. Offering a story-based opportunity to explore shapes and discuss properties, each book develops the relationship between the shapes. The trilogy ends on a cliff hanger, with a mysterious shape appearing in the shadows but it is never revealed what it is. Children will love sharing their theories about the mystery shape and the stories provide a fantastic opportunity to assess understanding of shape properties and related vocabulary.
