A Boston Globe*-*Horn Book Honor Book * Winner of the
Mathical Book Prize
Perfect for curious children, classrooms eager for STEM content, and
readers who have devoured Ada Twist, Scientist and How Much Is a
Million?, this nonfiction picture book is an excellent choice to share
during homeschooling, in particular for children ages 4 to 8. It's a fun
way to explore beginning math concepts and as a supplement for activity
books for children.
Did you know that the earth is covered in three trillion trees? And that
seven billion people weigh about the same as ten quadrillion ants? Our
world is full of constantly changing numbers, from a hundred billion
trillion stars in space to thirty-seven billion rabbits on Earth. Can
you imagine that many of anything?
The playful illustrations from New York Times-bestselling artist
Isabel Greenberg and the friendly, straightforward voice of author Seth
Fishman illuminate some of the biggest numbers in the universe--a
hundred billion trillion stars--and the smallest--one unique and special
YOU. Here is a book for story time, for science time, for math time, for
bedtime, and all the times in between.
"This picture book is one in a gazillion."--Jane O'Connor, the New
York Times-bestselling author of the Fancy Nancy series
