The shape of you  Cover Image Book Book

The shape of you / written by Mượn Thị Văn ; illustrated by Miki Sato.

Van, Muon. (Author). Sato, Miki, 1987- (Added Author).

Summary:

"In lyrical language, a mother tells her small daughter about the shapes that make up their lives. At first, the shapes are literal. The shape of their door is a rectangle, their table, a square. Water can be shaped like a cube or a cloud. And then she moves on to the figurative. The shape of learning is a question. The shape of warmth is a space waiting to be filled. Some shapes change, like a child growing up, while some remain the same, like the triangle of the mountain behind their house. The shape of her heart, she concludes, 'will always be you'--Provided by publisher.
