A number book like no other, introducing children to the significance of different numbers and the things they are associated with. Did you know that an octopus has 3 hearts, every snowflake has 6 points, giraffes have 7 bone in their necks, cloud cover is measure in 'oktas' from 0 to 8, and that 9 is lucky in China (but unlucky in Japan)? An unusual approach to a numbers book and a gorgeous and slightly eccentric illustration style will make this title stand out in a crowded retail environment. By the team who worked together on the acclaimed My First 100 Words Book, Count to 100 and the award-winning Big Book of Colours (winner of the School Library Association's Under 7 Children's Choice Award 2016). An effortless and enjoyable way for children to learn about topics as diverse as fractions, counting, shapes, measuring, music, dates, animals, space, sports, geography and mythology through the magic of numbers.

"Designed to help improve numeracy, the book mirrors primary teaching methods to help ensure continuity and build confidence"--Cover verso.

In the American Mathematical Society's first-ever book for kids (and kids at heart), mathematician and author Richard Evan Schwartz leads math lovers of all ages on an innovative and strikingly illustrated journey through the infinite number system. By means of engaging, imaginative visuals and endearing narration, Schwartz manages the monumental task of presenting the complex concept of Big Numbers in fresh and relatable ways. The book begins with small, easily observable numbers before building up to truly gigantic ones, like a nonillion, a tredecillion, a googol, and even ones too huge for names! Any person, regardless of age, can benefit from reading this book. Readers will find themselves returning to its pages for a very long time, perpetually learning from and growing with the narrative as their knowledge deepens. Really Big Numbers is a wonderful enrichment for any math education program and is enthusiastically recommended to every teacher, parent and grandparent, student, child, or other individual interested in exploring the vast universe of numbers.

This is unlike any other book on numerology, because it reveals the science behind this ancient mystical art and explains why it works. It is also the first book to present a thorough explanation of the numbers and letters, starting with their origins--the how and why of their design--and exploring their nature in names and language. In addition, it introduces the Inner Guidance Number, a powerful tool for accessing our inner knowing. Note: This is a repackaging of The Secret Science of Numerology: The Hidden Meaning of Numbers and Letters by Shirley Lawrence (New Page, 2001; ISBN: 9781564145291), which has until recently only been available via Lightning Source.
