Paris: A Book of Shapes is an engaging short story. Children will love learning about shapes all over the city of Paris, France. The reader must spot the circles near the Eiffel Tower, the triangles at the Louvre Museum, the squares at the patisserie, the rectangles at the Notre-Dame Cathedral, the ovals at Versailles, the arches at the Arc de Triumph and the stars above the City of Lights. The illustrations are colorful and will catch any younger reader's attention. I enjoyed finding the shapes inside the cities' most famous attractions. ( )
