Best Selling Books by Satoshi Kitamura

This unique collection of original poems about maths provides delightful insights into the world of numbers, sometimes humourous, sometimes thoughtful but always highly entertaining. Encapsulating a real love of and enthusiasm for numbers it is ideal for all fans of poetry but particularly those fascinated by numbers. In addition it provides perfect material for maths and numeracy classes and assemblies. This volume develops further the striking and highly successful partnership between two of Britain''s leading artists in their field - acclaimed poet John Agard is renowned for his poetry and performances at events in schools and other venues across Britain over more than 20 years, and Satoshi Kitamura has won many awards for his striking children''s books illustrations. The contents range from the title poem in which Einstein''s number-loving parents persuade her of the fun they have with maths, to poems about the magic number nine, the power of the decimal point, and the ancient Inca counting device the Quipo. Interspersed are fun poems like ''The Mental Arithmetic Twist'' and ''The Polygons'', and others reflecting on the discoveries of Archimedes (his mother talks to the press about his famous naked dash through town) and Fermat. This beautifully crafted book makes a rich feast of poetic ideas.

A simple game of hide-and-seek turns into a search full of surprises and sea creatures.
