If you look hard enough, you can find a face in the most unexpected places: on a light switch, a shoe, a cardboard box, or a map. Look around. They're everyplace! With its funny illustrations, colorful design and playful die-cut cover, this is a book that will tickle the funny bones of readers of all ages.
Poetic verse accompanies photos of inanimate objects that take on anthropomorphic features in Find a Face by Francois and Jean Robert, with Jean Gittings. Full-bleed photos show the close-up "faces" of objects such as the markings on the heel of a shoe, an upside-down chair and the profiles of triangular cheese graters. Readers are invited to guess the object's identity (answers, printed upside-down, appear below each object) and to seek faces in their daily lives: "Need to find a friendly face?/ Look around, we're everyplace!"
