Shapesville

by Andy Mills, Becky Osborn, Erica Neitz (Illustrator)

Overview

Shapesville is a small town where five friends of various shapes, sizes, colors, and talents celebrate what makes each of them unique. Simple, rhyming verse, bold, playful illustrations of basic shapes and colors, and endearing characters show that "It's not the size of your shape or the shape of your size, but the size of your heart that deserves first prize." Discussion questions and a note to parents and educators at the end of the book further its message of positive body image.

About the Author

Remarkably, the three co-authors are recent graduates from small Kenyon College in Gambier, OH, where they wrote Shapesville as an independent study project. Finding a publisher for their book defied millions to one odds! Andy Mills and Becky Osborn received their B.A. degrees in Psychology, and Erica Neitz, the illustator, graduated with a B.A. in Art. All of them will be actively marketing the book.
