Discovering patterns Book

Why oh why couldn’t math class have been like this in the upper elementary grades. (Well, okay, I did enjoy learning and using the abacus in sixth grade, but overall my math lessons until college were mostly uninspired.)

This is a concept book about factorials. The story and facts are enhanced by beautiful and detailed artwork.

I actually might have found the story proper a bit confusing, but the afterword manages to make factorials so clear.

A father and son team collaborated on this book. I really enjoyed the art and the way the facts were presented, and I would recommend this book for or as an adjunct to a math lesson.
