This children's book teaches about different shapes through rhyming descriptions of each shape. It describes circles, triangles, rectangles, pentagons, stars, octagons, diamonds, ovals, and squares. Each shape is given a short rhyming description of its defining characteristics and an example of where that shape can be found. The book concludes by stating that shapes are everywhere in town.
