As young readers journey into the natural world, they will discover that
numbers, patterns, shapes -- and much more! -- can be found in everyday
plants and animals.
What if animals and plants knew math, just like us? Would snowflakes all
fall from the same height in the sky? Would otters spread themselves
evenly across lakes? Would groundhogs be aware of the date? In Sizing
Up Winter, the third title in the Math in Nature series, nature comes
to life to help children grasp concepts of time and measurement.
