Reach for this book when your child starts asking big questions about how the world is organized, beyond just naming objects.

It is perfect for the transitional period when a preschooler is moving from simple nouns to complex concepts like middle, almost, and bottom. Through bold, geometric graphics, the book explores the mathematical and artistic side of language.
