Meet Triangle and all the other shapes in this hilarious picture book about friendships, fun, and finding your place. No matter how hard she tries, Triangle doesn't roll like the circles, or stack like the squares . . . so she sets off to find friends that look exactly like her. But when she finds the other triangles, playtime isn't as fun. She misses the shapes that roll and stack; she misses having friends of all shapes and sizes! Can Triangle get all of the different shapes playing and having fun together? Written by Naomi Jones and illustrated by James Jones, The Perfect Fit is wonderful for sharing with little ones who are learning all about shapes, colours, and friendship! Children can have more fun with One More Try.

A story about happiness, differences and shapes!
