Scavenger Hunt

Obviously the description of this pre-school picture book is inaccurate. This story encourages readers to find shapes in nature. It illustrates the repeating patterns found all around us in branches, feathers, and even fish scales. Excellent for group story time or a lap read for ages four to eight.
