Subtitled "Dr. Seuss''s Surprising Word Book," The Shape of Me
and Other Stuff certainly lives up to its billing. In this
delightful book, first published in 1973, kids are encouraged to
ponder shapes they may never have considered before: "Just think
about the shape of beans and flowers and mice and big machines!"
Dr. Seuss''s illustrations are in silhouette for the purpose of
accenting the outlines of figures, but are nonetheless up to par
with his usual wacky, amusing style. Soaring well beyond the
mundane arena of circles, triangles, and squares, here we are
challenged to consider "the shape of camels … the shape of bees and
the wonderful shapes of back door keys!" Kids will love the silly
rhymes and funny pictures, and parents will appreciate this
original take on the largely untapped world of shapes.
This wacky, rhyming exploration of the concept of shapes will
be welcomed by beginning readers.
