About The Book

Little ones will learn about first shapes and the first people in their lives in this heartfelt and poetic board book that’s truly out of the box.

Every page of this adorable board book is a different shape that represents different family members in a child’s life. From star-shaped moms to heart-shaped dads, each shape helps define the loving characteristics of family members. The sturdy, square approach of grandpa and the soft and rocking approach of grandma will show little ones they are loved from a fresh perspective.
