A highly original box of delights from one of the world's leading paper engineers. This novelty book is a masterful feat of paper engineering and a vibrant introduction to the concept of shape. Each brightly coloured die-cut page showcases a shape - circle, oval, square, rectangle, diamond and triangle - which, when you pull a tab, transforms into a familiar object (the circle becomes a balloon, the oval becomes a fish, and so on). On the reverse side of each page is an ever-decreasing selection of flaps - all of that shape - which can be lifted to reveal clearly labelled pictures of other familiar objects (the circle page features a pizza, a ball, a clock, a steering wheel, etc). The multi-layered pages are ingeniously cut, providing a dynamic visual interest rarely seen in concept novelty books for this age group. Bright, stylish and intricate - this book will make an outstanding addition to any toddler's bookshelf.
