The lyrical verses and captivating illustrations of this picture book explore how the concepts and patterns of mathematics shape the natural world

The universe seems in such disarray,
but it follows an order, not one thing astray.
So the planets and stars have been created,
atoms brought together as if they were fated.


Nature's secrets are brought to life through an innovative blend of science, poetry, and art, making complex math concepts accessible and engaging for children aged five to nine. Young readers will discover the hidden mathematical patterns in everyday phenomena, from honeycombs and butterflies to celestial bodies and intricate geometric shapes.

• This charming STEM educational resource encourages students to see the world through a mathematical lens.
• Spheres, hexagons, symmetry, fractals, and spirals are among the concepts explored.
• Each mathematical concept is presented alongside an observation, linking math to the universe's natural rhythms.
• Thought-provoking quotes from renowned figures such as Galileo, Marcel Proust, and Jules Verne add depth to the learning experience.
• The book’s large size, die-cut cover, and gorgeous art make it ideal for gifting and displaying.
