(3) K-3 QEB Shapes Around Me series. This series has a good grasp of how children best learn new math concepts. Each book begins with a bright illustration of the shape and asks children to trace it with a finger. Subsequent pages present the shape in a variety of colorful sizes, places where it can be found, and activities. Well-thought-out, age appropriate, and attractive. Review covers these QEB Shapes Around Me titles: Circles, Rectangles, Squares, and Triangles.
