Mathematics is a part of a child's world. It is not only interpreting numbers or mastering tricks of addition or multiplication. mathematics is about ideas. These ideas have been developed to explain particular comparisons. yet all too often the important part that an understanding of mathematics will play in a child's development is forgotten or ignored. The photographs and text in this book have been chosen to encourage talk about topics that are essentially mathematical. by talking the young reader can explor some of the central concepts that support mathematics.
