Description
No matter how hard she tries, Triangle doesn't roll like the circles, or stack like the squares—so she sets off to find friends that look exactly like her. But when she finds the other triangles, playtime isn't as fun. She misses the shapes that roll and stack; she misses being different. So she starts a new quest, one that gets all of the different shapes playing and having fun together!

"Now, clearly this is a perfect title for any shape unit you're teaching. ... In addition to naming and identifying shapes, though, this is a great title for discussing inclusivity and working together!" -- Little Cub Literacy
"The narrative progresses at a good, steady pace while speech balloons add the characters' comments along the way. Still, it's the illustrations, featuring amiable little geometric characters, that will capture the audience with their childlike imagination, varied compositions, and pleasing design. This colorful picture book offers a playful introduction to recognizing geometric shapes and celebrating differences." -- Booklist
