Indulge in the captivating world of colours! Dive into the world of the diverse shapes and patterns that are hiding everywhere in nature.

Nature and colours again? Why not! You'd be surprised how often the same shapes and patterns are repeated in nature. What is shaped like a heart or a star around us? Which animal, mineral, or plant is pointed and which of them wears wavy shapes? The ground, underground, even the deep dark seas are teeming with waves, dots, stripes, playful spots, curly spirals, and complicated patterns. Even the tiniest ones have a place in nature and a reason to be there. Camouflage patterns help animals blend in with their surroundings, while the more distinct ones serve them during courtship or when spooking an intruder. Discover marvellous shapes and patterns you can find all around you. The first book in this series was selected by the Wall Street Journal in the "Best Picture Books for Kids."

Industry Reviews

"Beautiful illustrations. Tons of information on each page without information overload. A good quick reference." -Debbie Buck, Vintage Books

"I would recommend this book for the beautiful illustrations alone. Patrons will enjoy looking at the images. There is so much on each page that it can be reread over and over." -Amanda B, Librarian

"This one is such a visual treat! It is absolutely lovely and includes so many details to discuss and marvel over. There are two more books in this line that are similarly lovely: Colors in Nature and Colors in Habitats. They make for unique coffee table books and add such cool flair to any collection of STEM books for kids." -The Kid Lit Mama Blog

"I can't think of any shape book that has such extensive illustrations, and this can't be beat for attractive design or number of examples." -Karen Yingling, YA Books Central

"The illustrations are very well done as well as beautiful. I believe this is a book that can be enjoyed by readers of any age, whether just looking at the pictures or truly studying them." -NetGalley-Educator
