<p> <b><i>Circles can be fat or thin;<br> there can be lots -- or one.<br> And round things can be big or small,<br> and learning can be fun!</i></b> </p><p> This innovative picture book encourages children, through poetry and photographs, to explore the idea of what is round -- from the spots on a ladybug's back to a ring on a finger or a wheel on a bike. Using words such as 'dot,' 'spot,' 'loop,' 'hoop,' and 'ring,' it shows that round things aren't all alike, but can be anything! </p><p> Tires on a car are round, for example, and so are the traffic lights that tell those tires when to go and stop. Three round buttons? They're the same shape as a hula hoop! </p><p> A perfect complement to <i>Zebra Stripes Go Head to Toe</i>, the simple text and vibrant design of <b><i>Ladybugs Have Lots of Spots</i></b> encourage children to look for and identify similarly shaped objects in their own environments. Paired together or read separately, these fun books are a great way to introduce the concept of shapes to young children. </p>
