In this nonfiction book, students are presented with the concept of texture. Texture is the way something feels. The entire rest of the book is about different textures in our world. From things that are soft and fluffy (furry slippers) to knobbly and warty (squash). The descriptions are vivid and make great use of adjectives. The photographs that accompany the descriptions are vivid as well and of great quality. There are just so many neat parts to this book. I loved it (and I am not an art person)! The photos that go with the descriptions of textures are ingenious. This is a great book to add to the art section in any elementary library.
