Part of the Shapes Trilogy, the books that inspired Shape Island from
Apple TV+
The beguiling second entry in the innovative shape trilogy by
multi-award-winning, New York Times best-selling duo Mac Barnett and
Jon Klassen.
This book is about Square. Square spends every day taking blocks from a
pile below the ground to a pile above the ground. This book is also
about Square's friend Circle. Circle thinks Square is an artistic
genius. But is he really? With the second story in a trilogy of tales
about Triangle, Square, and Circle, Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen nudge
readers toward a more well-rounded way of looking at things. Understated
and striking in its simplicity, this funny, thoughtful offering from two
of today's most talented picture-book creators emphasizes the importance
of keeping your eyes -- and your mind -- open to wonder where others see
only rubble and rocks.
