Up Close

Wegerif Gay

Description

Recognizing and labeling animals has never been so geometrically inspired! Young children will delight in the usual suspects (bunny, pig, frog, chicken, monkey, and lion) depicted in a whole new way. The elements of each zoomed-in face provide only a subtle hint of the animals identities, inviting children (and adults!) to stretch the boundaries of what defines an animal image. The simple question-and-answer format provides immediate gratification for even the shortest attention spans. Praise for Up Close STARRED REVIEW "Wegerif does a remarkable job of capturing each creatures essence in a few simple shapes and bright nursery colors." Publishers Weekly, starred review "The text, written in a clear, blocky type, encourages a guessing game." Kirkus Reviews "In this inventive board book, colorful, abstract illustrations invite young listeners to participate in a guessing game. Recommended with extra enthusiasm for its ingenuity and high-quality art." School Library Journal
