Back matter situates this simply presented, graphically crisp, and straightforward concept book in the Art Deco District of Miami Beach. Skillful close-up photographs of architectural elements introduce numbers from one to ten, shapes (including more complex ones such as octagons and zigzags), and colors, culminating in an open-ended identification game. Reminiscent of Tana Hoban's work, the book feels both vintage and timeless.
