Reviews

PreSchool-Jaunty photographs of everyday items from sneakers to candy set double-page scenes for discussion in these two concept books. In Numbers, children are asked to identify the objects on a page and then asked a question about them, e.g., "two shoes/What color are your shoes?" Unfortunately, the queries may confuse. A page on which youngsters are asked to "point to the orange ball" shows a basketball and a beach ball that has an orange section. This book also asks, "Which is your favorite" three times, as if the author ran out of questions. In the busy Sizes book, Gunzi challenges youngsters to differentiate between thick and thin, long and short, as well as the typical big and small. Visual misconceptions appear when looking at "same" and "different." The pictured items appear approximately the same size on the page, but in reality are greatly diverse-which is the child to address? These books fail in their execution.
