Summary
Pquot;A moveable reflective surface provides an innovative ingredient in this high-concept book… Readers will have just as much fun rotating the shapes as solving the mirror puzzlesPquot;P#8212;Plt;iPgt;Plt;bPgt;Publishers WeeklyPlt;/bPgt;Plt;/iPgt;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;In this creative wonder, artist Monte Shin uses shape and symmetry to turn what look like random squiggles into recognizable forms. This uniquely interactive book needs the readerP#39;s help to finish the pictures, because they can only be seen using the attached fold-up mirror. Once the mirror is in place, readers can spin the central art on each page to reveal not only an array of fun abstract shapes, but a delightfully surprising final image. Enormously fun to play with, little ones will get a taste of how this book works on the MirrorPlayBook YouTube video or by using the QR code on the back cover.

“BOARD BOOKS 2018: WHAT WE’VE GOT IS A VERY STRONG YEAR: Has anyone else noticed that 2018 has been a shockingly strong board book year? Here’s a small smattering of some of the true beauties I’ve run across this year …. Slick packaging and a clever idea (particularly if you want to teach symmetry at all).” Elizabeth Bird, slj.com
