Shapeasaurus Illustrated by
Luciana Navarro Powell. Chronicle
Books, 2012. $9.99 BOARD BOOK Content: G.
This is a book about three T-Rex dinosaur babies
and how they come across different shapes as they explore their world. At the beginning of the book, the T-Rex
babies hatch from oval eggs and then they come across a circle sun, square
rocks, diamond shape spikes and crescent shape claws. The book ends with the three T-Rex babies grown up having
dinosaur eggs of their own.
The
illustrations are cute and colorful for young readers. I think this book encourages young
readers to look for shapes in their everyday environment, just like the
dinosaurs found shapes in their surroundings. My least favorite part of this book is for the rectangle
shape they used triceratops teeth and it’s hard to decipher what shape they are
from the picture.
PRE-K -OPTIONAL. Reviewer, C.
