    "The book is a well-designed invitation to both recognize visual similarities and imagine the many different manifestations that a shape can take. A fun, mostly successful set of visual riddles for young readers."—Kirkus Reviews

    In this clever book of die-cut shapes, you can see how a watermelon changes into a bird’s beak—or how a tulip becomes a mermaid’s tail. The pages connect to each other not only with their die-cut holes but also with zippy, rhyming text that makes for loads of fun. Filled with colorful art, this is a book that’s pleasing to the eyes, the ears, and the fingers.
