We live in a cluttered world, and it's important for a child to learn how to recognize an important target image in a sea of irrelevant images. This ability is technically known as figure-ground perception. In everyday life, this involves such tasks as finding a particular product on a supermarket shelf, or finding a particular icon on a computer screen. Parents can use this book as an aid to develop the skills of ocular motor control and visual processing in their children. The parents can read the short text description of a scene, and then prompt the child to find the hidden teddy bear in the image. Each scenario has an easier first image, and a slightly harder second image. The black-and-white images in this book remove the distracting feature of color, and they also allow production of this book at the lowest possible price.
