BOOK REVIEW

SO MANY CIRCLES, SO MANY SQUARES by Tana Hoban

BOOK REVIEW

ALL ABOUT WHERE by Tana Hoban
Released: April 26, 1991

"(Nonfiction/Picture book. 3+)"
An innovative pictorial approach to prepositions: 15 of them are listed in the outside margins of the first and last pages here, so that they can be seen when the cropped, textless inner pages are turned, each displaying a single color photo that—in typical Hoban style—is intriguing for both subject and design and suggests several of the words: "above," "out," "through," etc. Much to consider, to learn, to discuss, and to enjoy.
