Overview

Spare, rhythmic text and pairs of simple circular shapes convey opposite relationships in the arc of a day in this very simple concept book.

Dots here, dots there, you can see dots everywhere! Some are loud, and some are quiet. Some are happy, and some are sad. Some dots even taste yummy, while others taste bad.

Graphic designer Patricia Intriago sets bold, circular shapes against a stark white background to emphasize opposite dot relationships.

Reading Group Guide

Teachers,
In Dot, graphic designer Patricia Intriago presents bold circles on a crisp white background to introduce opposite paired concepts such as slow/fast, happy/sad, loud/quiet, and hungry/full in a rhyming text. This intriguing book will serve as a springboard for engaging classroom activities for students ages five to eight in science (kinetics and phases of the moon), mathematics (geometric shapes), language arts (vocabulary development), art (shapes and painting techniques), and many areas of complex and critical thinking.
