Round things are everywhere once you start looking: eggs, berries, seeds, stones, flowers, planets, and the Earth itself.
In Round, a child’s curiosity leads readers through a world that is budding, swelling, ripening, and spinning. Joyce Sidman’s poetic text celebrates roundness in nature, from small discoveries close at hand to huge wonders in space.
This picture book is gentle, observant, and full of quiet delight. Taeeun Yoo’s illustrations support the sense of discovery, helping young readers connect shapes with living things and natural patterns. For children who like noticing details, asking questions, and finding beauty in everyday objects, Round turns a familiar shape into an invitation to wonder.
