Round Is a Pancake

(3) PS Illustrated by Yu-Mei Han. While the text explores the concept of roundness ("Round is a pancake, / round is a plum. / Round is a doughnut / and the top of a drum"), the exuberantly colored illustrations show a lively court preparing for the king's feast. The book does a nice job of stretching definitions ("Round is a puppy, / curled up on a rug"), while the pictures burst with patterns, colors, motion, and intriguing details.
