Explores 2-D and 3-D shapes.

Three mice make a variety of things out of different shapes as they hide from a scary cat.

Explains the geometric concept of fractals and where they can be found in nature. Describes different mathematics used in describing fractal patterns, and the history of geometric study. Explains constructal law and how scientists discover new fractal geometry every day. Also explores why fractal geometry matters, and what fractal patterns mean in natural design. Includes color photographs, fact sidebars, a glossary, an index, sources for further...

Introduces the mathematic concept of shapes, including an exploration of shapes found in nature and such geometric shapes as triangles, rectangles, circles, and spheres.

"Newbery-Honor winning poet Joyce Sidman invites readers to search their worlds for round objects in nature. Illustrated with warm, intimate art by two-time New York Times Best Illustrated artist Taeeun Yoo, this fresh celebration shows why we love this shape best."--

Nature?s repeating patterns, better known as fractals, are beautiful, universal, and explain much about how things grow. Fractals can also be quantified mathematically. Here is an elegant introduction to fractals through examples that can be seen in parks, rivers, and our very own backyards. Readers will be fascinated to learn that broccoli florets are fractals?just like mountain ranges, river systems, and trees?and will share in the wonder of math...
