Reviews:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cA simple little story that will reinforce the idea that sharing with friends is so much more fun than playing on your own. Sharing is caring.\u201d –\u00a0Carousel<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cDickson\u2019s picture-book debut is thoughtfully illustrated and designed. Against clean, white backgrounds the mixed-media illustrations keep things simple, the children\u2019s clothing color-coordinated with their blocks and their facial expressions clear and easy to read. The book\u2019s shape is fittingly square, and on the eye-catching cover the title is cleverly spelled out with alphabet blocks. With its spare but preschooldrama- filled text, this attractive book makes a first-rate read-aloud.\u201d –\u00a0Jennifer M. Brabander, www.hbook.com<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cA story about the importance of sharing and how things can go better if we work together. Irene Dickinson\u2019s Blocks has bright and engaging illustrations and a simple story of how putting all the toys together, and playing in a group, can be even more fun than playing on your own.\u201d –\u00a0BookTrust<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cA cleverly simple book builds skills as well as towers\u2026 readers will want to share Blocks!\u201d –\u00a0Starred review from Kirkus\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cA wonderfully simple story on the sharing theme that will surely pack a powerful punch with early years audiences; it\u2019s a must have book for pre-school settings and families with very young children\u2026 What\u2019s more, with its easy to read, brief text, this debut picture book is ideal for those just beginning to read for themselves.\u201d – Jill R.
