"Sisters Usha and Aarti, and cousin Gloria, see different things in the stars--a Big Dipper, a Big Digger, and a Big Kite--in this introduction to geometry and spatial relationships"--Provided by publisher.

"[This book] starts with the simple task of dividing up ground for making fields and a building--the word geometry means 'Earth measurement.' It ends by navigating us through new universes constructed entirely from mathematics, strange worlds where curved lines are straight, and a donut and coffee cup are exactly the same shape. Along the way, we'll see just how lines, surfaces, and spaces can add up to reveal other ways of seeing the world"--Back cover.

"Rafael tries to save his toys from his baby sister, Essie, by building a wall from shoeboxes, toilet paper rolls, and other household objects in this playful exploration of spatial sense and geometry."--.

An introduction to geometry.

"[This book] reveals the geometry underneath some of the most important scientific, political, and philosophical problems we face. Geometry asks: Where are things? Which things are near each other? How can you get from one thing to another thing? Those are important questions. Geometry doesn't just measure the world--it explains it. [This book] shows us how"--Provided by publisher.
