Despite the odd bump in the road, all the circles in the town called Round have happy lives. Until an obtuse stranger comes to visit, with an even stranger machine. Called the Corner Transformer, the stranger boasts that it will give them all a new angle on life and they can make better shapes too. All the circles eagerly try it out, but changing from circles to squares and triangles isn't quite what they expected...The Circles of Round is an imaginative tale full of amazing photographs of three dimensional geometric shapes.
