Introduce kids aged 5-7 to shapes in an adventure story featuring two funny, cheeky robots named Beep and Boots Join two friendly and funny robots, Beep and Boots, as they learn all about shapes and discover that maths is everywhere they look. Beep the robot would love nothing more than to have her own pet, like her friends do. One morning she gets a surprise delivery - a parcel containing circles, squares, triangles, and pentagons for her to make her own robot cat! Beep realises that she can't make a pet pal from flat, two-dimensional shapes so, with a flash of magic, the shapes become three-dimensional spheres, cubes, and pyramids. Join Beep as she tries different ways of putting shapes together to build her robot cat and make a best friend forever. Characterful illustrations and rhyming text bring Beep and Boots to life. Children aged 5-7 will love seeing the adventures the robot duo go on and will learn key mathematical concepts concerning shapes in a gentle, fun way.
