Colors and Shapes / Los Colores Y Las Figuras

Introduce children to the concepts of color and shape with wonderfully charming illustrations of multicultural children holding up oversized shapes in different colors. The last page depicts a busy classroom scene and encourages readers to identify the shapes and colors they've just learned.

From the Author:

When my children were in preschool, I found it hard to find good quality books in English and Spanish. This difficulty inspired me to create the English and Spanish Foundations Series.

Over the course of my career, I have developed over 600 books and other products for some of the largest publishers in the United States and have received numerous awards and accolades. My clients have included companies such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Dental Association, American Medical Association, Cook County Hospital, Kraft General Foods, Target, Boarders, Costco, Sams, Burlington Coat Factory, U.S. Post Office, World Book, American Family Insurance, Sate Farm, Reader's Digest, Heinemann Library, HarperCollins, Dorling Kindersley, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Cengage Learning, McGraw Hill, Pearson and others.

I am a graduate of the Art Institute of Chicago and have a BFA in Visual Communications. While at SAIC, I also won a scholarship to study in Europe at the Basel School of Design. I also have a master's degree in Service Design and Design Research from IIT School of Design, with an emphasis on User-centered, Research and Analysis, Service Design and Cross-Cultural Research.

I am fluent in English and Spanish and live in the Chicago area with my husband, two children and our dog Chuchi.

I am so thankful and grateful that you have chosen to buy our products. It is my hope that you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed creating them.
