Many things in the natural world are round - the moon, the sun, a
nest, a bubble. And so are many delicious things to eat - a ball of
ice-cream, a doughnut, a pie. And so too are more decorative
objects such as a crown, a clock or a bauble on a Christmas tree.
Through gentle verse this charming book, first published in the
1950s, explores a surprising range of items and sounds that come in
round shapes. Striking and vibrant illustrations by Vladimir Bobri
add humour and warmth to this joyful geometrical exploration for
young children.
This accordion-style book, based on the author's landmark board
books, "Black on White" and "White on Black," is a must-have for
new babies. It's ideal for developing visual and fine motor skills.

For fans of Taro Gomi's Everyone Poops and Matthew Van Fleet's
Tails, this cheeky, whimsical picture book for ages 3-7 inspires
self-love and body positivity, plus a whole lot of laughter and
fun! All bottoms are wonderful! Don't you agree? Each animal in
this adorable book has a different reason for loving their
behind-from cute and round to fashionable and striped! Talented
illustrator Maki Saito makes kids laugh out loud with playful
illustrations of the backsides of hippos, zebras, pandas,
mandrills, and more of our favorite animals. Her traditional
Japanese art techniques add a sophisticated, beautiful feel to a
book about ... animal butts! Kids will love readling along to this
wonderfully silly and unusually empowering book. "In Saito's
delicate renderings, each bottom is distinct and, yes, beautiful."-
