My First Book of Patterns [Board book]

Have you learned your colors and shapes? Now it's time to learn patterns!

Stripes, polka dots, plaid, chevron, and more are featured in this first-ever patterns concept book that provides readers with the vocabulary to name what they see in the world around them. The ten most prevalent patterns are presented first as a single element (This is a circle...), then as a pattern (...a lot of circles make polka dots!). Conceived by educators and illustrated in vivid candy-colored hues, this pitch-perfect introduction to patterns will engage the artistic, mathematical, and linguistic parts of every young child's mind.

Bobby and June George are a husband-wife duo who founded and run South Dakota's first and only accredited Montessori School. They also run Montessorium, a Montessori app company, and have published four children's books to date.
