A little girl's urban neighborhood becomes a discovery ground for all things round, square, and rectangular in this lyrical picture book. Most items are Asian in origin, others universal: round rice bowls and a found pebble, square dim sum and the boxes that the pizzas come in, rectangular Chinese lace and a very special pencil case. Bright, whimsical art accompanies the narrative rhyme, and a short glossary adds cultural significance to the objects featured in the book. Perfect for read-alouds or one-on-one sharing.


在這本詩歌般的故事中，小女孩在住家附近尋找所有圓形、正方形和長方形的東西。書中提及的物品幾乎都是源於亞洲，以及各處都可見的圓形飯碗、石頭，正方形的點心和比薩盒子，長方形的中國風蕾絲和特殊的筆袋。鮮明有趣的插圖、適合朗讀的韻文和簡易字彙表能增強對中國文化的知識，是本書最大特色，也是朗讀和分享給朋友的最佳讀物。
