Orange, Triangle, Fox by Sarah Jones

Orange, Triangle, Fox by Sarah Jones

A humorous and innovative introduction to colors, shapes, and backyard animals

Common animals, such as red square owl and yellow star frog, teach young readers multiple, basic concepts at once in this educational concept book. An ideal read for bedtime or story time, this book's rich watercolor illustrations and delightful animals will engage children and become a family favorite.

"In this triple threat (at least as far as concept books go), Cincinnati-based author/artist Jones makes a strong debut as she explores seven colors, shapes, and animalsOn the opening spread, the words "brown circle hedgehog" appear within a white circle at left; at right, an adorable cartoon version of the animal sleeps contentedly on its back, its body the shape of a circle. Elsewhere, a "red square owl" stares off-page, as though trying to remember something, and the jointed legs of a "yellow star frog" give the animal a five-pointed outline. Jones's clever portraits ooze personality, and will appeal to children and book-buying adults alike." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
