Written by an award-winning author, this book is filled with non-computational maths with puzzle-like challenges, mazes and games. With pencil and paper, scissors and tape, readers can: investigate the insides and outsides of objects, expand simple patterns into complex patterns by playing with Lusona (based on an African game where patterns are drawn on the ground); and explore the Mobius strip, a single-sided loop that transforms when you cut it. The book also features multicultural elements, such as one section which teaches children an African mathematics drawing method.
