Description

New York, NY, U.S.A.: Little, Brown & Co,, 1982. The book is in new/unread condition, it is clean, tight, and crisp. 128 pages. A Brown Paper School Book. The Brown Paper School Books are written by a group of people who get together every now and then to work on stuff for kids and to have a good time. They believe that learning only happens when it is wanted: that it can happen anywhere and doesn't require fancy tools. Are you a math whiz? If you said no, then this book has a surprise for you: you may be smarter than you thought. If you said yes, this book may still surprise you. How can you be both? Because being smart at math doesn't mean being able to multiply fractions in your head at the speed of light. Numbers are only a part of math. Some people can see shapes better than most. Others can figure out logical problems better than their friends. There are many ways to be smart when it comes to mathematics, and this book will tell you about all of them. Filled with puzzles and challenges of all sorts, this book is fun for both kids and their parents. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Soft Cover. Fine/No Jacket as Issued. Illus. by Weston, Martha. Mathematics.
