## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Hoban knocks another one out of the park!
  

*by W***T on Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2010*

Pretty much any book by Tana Hoban, just buy. It makes kids smart. No words=discussion=more brian cells used and created. Her photos are excellent; playful, clear, simple, and include kids. My only complaint is that I wouldn't really consider "shiny" to be a tactile description like rough or smooth, so it's not strictly a book all about touch, but that's really just more room for discussion with your budding scientists on how to classify and label objects using their five senses. A great addition to any child's library, Kindergarten classroom or science center.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A wordless picture book
  

*by V***D on Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2014*

This book is good to encourage descriptive vocabulary in young children.  The pages contain no text and one large photograph each.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    leaves a lot to interpretation
  

*by C***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2009*

Interesting pictures but no captions or text. It can be challenging to figure out what concept the pages are trying to support.
