Up Close, livre ebook

Recognizing and labeling animals has never been so geometrically inspired! Young children will delight in the usual suspects (bunny, pig, frog, chicken, monkey, and lion) depicted in a whole new way. The elements of each zoomed-in face provide only a subtle hint of the animals identities, inviting children (and adults!) to stretch the boundaries of what defines an animal image. The simple question-and-answer format provides immediate gratification for even the shortest attention spans. Praise for Up Close STARRED REVIEW "Wegerif does a remarkable job of capturing each creatures essence in a few simple shapes and bright nursery colors." Publishers Weekly, starred review "The text, written in a clear, blocky type, encourages a guessing game." Kirkus Reviews "In this inventive board book, colorful, abstract illustrations invite young listeners to participate in a guessing game. Recommended with extra enthusiasm for its ingenuity and high-quality art." School Library Journal
