Not Square, Not Round Picture Book Guide: 'The Not-Round Circle' This picture book tells a story primarily through visuals. Through rich color variations, exquisite, childlike, and adorable clay character designs, and multi-layered photographic compositions and perspectives, it presents the contrasting daily landscapes and image aesthetics of urban and rural areas, as well as external environmental changes, using a wordless picture book format to offer diverse visual experiences for both child and adult readers.

The editorial design of this book places the story text only at the end, narrated in the first person by Little Circle to describe the character's subtle internal emotional changes and mood shifts, presenting Little Circle's journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and a path of self-identity. The visual imagery is open-ended; this version of the story is merely a reference, and every reader can use it to tell their own story.
