Synopsis

A whimsical tribute to the shape we're in, the shapes we see all around us--and some shapes that could only come from the imagination of Dr. Seuss! This board book edition features abridged text and sturdy pages for little readers.

"The shape of you, the shape of me, the shape of everything I see."

Even in silhouette, the fun and fanciful art of Dr. Seuss is instantly recognizable in this Bright and Early Book classic: "a bug, a balloon, a bed, a bike. No shapes are ever quite alike." Looking at ordinary shapes is great when seen through the eyes of the remarkable Dr. Seuss, but of course it's the extraordinary shapes that really make an impression. Would you want to be shaped like a BLOGG?

Bright and Early Board Books are super sturdy, simplified board book editions of classic Beginner Books. First launched in 1996, they have introduced millions of toddlers to beloved books from Dr. Seuss, P. D. Eastman, and other author-illustrators, in a format just right for young readers!
