<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published by Big Picture Press, an imprint of Bonnier Books UK 2020.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Find the clues and lift the flaps on this mathematical mystery!</b> <p/>Join Molly as she ventures into a curious world where nothing is quite as it seems. A trail of clues leads from scene to scene, presenting Molly with a number of challenges. But who is leaving the clues, and where will they lead? This interactive mystery shows math isn't just about numbers--it's about imagination! An explorative and creative approach to the world of mathematics.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Prompted by a note hidden beneath a flap, Molly finds herself first in a world (with, significantly, a white rabbit) where select insides and outsides are inverted. Subsequent flaps see her finding and passing through further concealed doorways into an M.C. Escher-style "impossible staircase," a maze with tessellated shapes, a set of infinitely receding hallways, and six more "implausible but not impossible" settings that likewise demonstrate some of math's central tools and ideas--often in an interactive way that requires folding, recognizing patterns, or interlacing pre-cut elements. Artymowska fills her big, square illustrations with both clearly drawn examples of each main concept and smaller details to search out, such as sets of nesting dolls to match up.<br>--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Eugenia Cheng</b> is a mathematician, pianist, and lecturer.
