Perfect Square

Hall, Michael

Michael Hall, the New York Times best-selling creator of My Heart Is Like a Zoo, delivers a stunning picture book that explores how a shape (and a life) can be transformed into something unexpected and astounding. Ideal for the elementary school classroom and for readers of all ages.

What happens when a perfect square is cut, torn, shredded, and shattered? Not quite what you’d expect. Graphic designer Michael Hall’s visual tour de force will inspire countless conversations and art projects in the preschool and early elementary classroom, while inviting readers young and old to think about luck and chance and faith and transformations. With its bold, bright collage artwork (reminiscent of Eric Carle and Lois Ehlert), elegant design, and intriguing text, Perfect Square is a book that comes full circle.
