Book Review: Pokemon Primers: Shapes Book by Simcha Whitehill

Pokemon Primers: Shapes Book
by Simcha Whitehill (jPB Board Book Whitehill)

Dear Parents:

 

You might be pretty confident in your ability to identify shapes, but how good are you with Pokémon identification? Do you have someone in your household that’s been trying to catch them all and speaking to you in a language that seems familiar and yet you don’t quite understand?

 

This Pokémon Primer lift-the-flap book is ready to come to your rescue! You can impress your child by knowing the shapes, and if you are quick, you’ll be able to name the Pokémon as you flip through twelve plus adventures. (Pro tip: take advantage of the in-story pronunciation guides.)

 

Seriously, this book could be an awesome experience in cooperative learning. I’m sure I’m not the only one who spent time with a tiny expert on Pokémon, and would have enjoyed being the student to my Pokémon master. Or perhaps, YOU are the Pokémon master and you are ready to share your adventure with the next generation? Either way, this book catches all the fun.

 

Pokemon Primers: Shapes Book is a board book that has more than 100 flaps to open, spread through twelve scenes that are packed with information and topics to discuss as well as Pokemon to find and identify.
