About the book
I have had the privilege of reviewing all of Nigel Tetley's books. I am so happy to be able to give an enthusiastic shout-out for his newest creation - " Number Shapes". This vibrantly coloured educational book has rhyming text which is something that kids always love. When concept words are spun into fanciful rhymes they are much easier to understand and to remember. The illustrations mirror the shape of each of the first ten cardinal numbers as written in Arabic numerals.
Young kids will appreciate that the numbers and illustrations are big and that the pages are uncluttered so they can focus on the author's mission... to offer an innovative resource for teaching number recognition. I highly recommend this book.

Meet the author
Since qualifying as a Religious Studies teacher in 1989, Nigel Tetley has worked in a variety of schools, spanning middle and secondary age groups in both the State and independent sectors. At the beginning of his teaching career, he also spent a year in Greece teaching English. In 2001, he started writing children's poetry at the suggestion of a colleague. Full details of all of his writing projects can be found on his website.
About the illustrator
Simon Goodway was born blue owing to a congenital spine defect. A clever doctor sorted him out and he was soon pink and walking about like a normal person.
Some years later he got a degree in artificial intelligence and worked for a bit in software, before he got bored of that and became a freelance illustrator. There was also an incident involving fish and a vacuum cleaner, but we won't go into that.
Throughout all of this he was writing, writing, writing, and finally out popped his novel Killing Elizabeth. Other things followed.
He lives in Brighton with a stupid cat called Henry and a fiancée called Jess.
