Sweet Shapes by Juana Medina Rosas

2.0

I wasn't a fan of this one and it's a shame because there were a few sweet treats that made many of these pages look so delightful. It didn't do much to catch the attention of my daughter, unless it was to point out the different sweets that were featured, but nothing else that it was supposed to do. One of those was the crescent shape that was stated as the shape for that page, but to her looked nothing like it  (too focused on the sweet shavings to notice the cupcake underneath in that form).

There was enough cutenes to enjoy the read and the different shapes that were placed in there, but don't think it's one we'll be reading repeatedly or more than once. This one definitely fell flat for us. I will say though, me and my son really loved the owl at the beginning in the shape of a macaroon and the wolf that had its face in the shape of a rice crispy cross. Other than that, we didn't find much fascination with it after going through the entirety of the book once.
