"As one would expect with a book involving Crayola crayons, bold colors highlight the topic. And when the topic is patterns, the photographs are even more vibrant. This entry in the Crayola Concepts series describes how colors, lines, and shapes repeat to form patterns. Girls splashing in puddles in polka-dot jackets, striped and checkered hot-air balloons soaring through the sky, woven cloth hanging on a loom, and other photographs provide visual reinforcement. The book extends the concept with examples from nature, such as spiraling plants, symmetrical snowflakes, and the underside of an octopus. In addition to these images, there are related patterns drawn with Crayola crayons and prompts for children to observe and draw their own patterns. A final observation activity features color 'swatches' of Crayola's more unusual crayon colors and asks readers to find examples of these colors throughout the book. Educators and caregivers can use these activities to make connections between math and art. For more vivid and colorful examples of patterns, pair with Jane Brocket's Spotty, Stripy, Swirly (2012)."--Booklist
