“Holes”, is one of many books, including “Jack-O-Lantern”, and “Water”,  by author, Tara McClintick and published through books by tara.Com.
As soon as you pick up this book, you will notice some of this book (and  the others created by this author), unique features, including its  length (it is 20 pages long), the large-size photographs, the spiral  binding (making it easier to handle for persons with motor skills  difficulties, but also for providing single-page focus for a page, and  the large, full-size color pictures.
In addition to the “Physical” features of this book, it is its pictures  that make it truly unique. This book is a visually stimulating  exploration of the concept of holes. The book uses crisp photos to  visually engage students as they learn a new concept.   I recommend the  book as a beginning to, or companion to, lessons regarding what a hole  is.  As a speech-language pathologist working with children with Autism I  found this book a great resource for transitioning from the concept of  circle to the more contextually relevant word hole.
My students (elementary school level) were highly engaged by the sharp,  clean pictures. This book was also used with children with autism in a  home-based setting with equally positive feedback and engagement.
This Book is not just about the concept of holes, but is a unique  opportunity and potential motivator for children to engage with the book  with another peer or adult on a subject. I would recommend this book  and its companion books, as a tool to enhance language concepts not only  for the school, but in the home setting, for children with autism or  others requiring additional support.
