Bears Love Squares

Description

Triangles are tremendous, circles are sensational, but Bear loves squares ... Squares are nice and even. Their corners are just so. Squares are always just the same, Any way they go. Can Raccoon convince his friend Bear that other shapes can be fun too? He's got his work cut out because "triangles are too pointy" and "circles are too circley". And Bear loves SQUARES! A gloriously colourful celebration of shapes, friendship and the power of seeing things from a different perspective.
