Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Talking math with your child is simple and even entertaining with this better approach to shapes!
Written by a celebrated math educator, this innovative inquiry encourages critical thinking and sparks memorable mathematical conversations. Children and their parents answer the same question about each set of four shapes- "Which one doesn't belong?" There's no one right answer--the important thing is to have a reason why. Kids might describe the shapes as squished, smooshed, dented, or even goofy. But when they justify their thinking, they're talking math! Winner of the Mathical Book Prize for books that inspire children to see math all around them.
"This is one shape book that will both challenge readers' thinking and encourage them to think outside the box."-- Kirkus Reviews , STARRED review
"Every page of this innovative picture book contains a thoughtfully designed set of four shapes and the question 'Which one doesn't belong?' Each of the shapes could be a correct answer to the question. Because there is no one right answer, children naturally shift their focus to justifications and arguments based on the shapes' geometric properties"--Provided by publisher.
