Description

Every child is a natural mathematician, according to Mitsumasa Anno. Children are constantly comparing and classifying things and events they observe around them. As they try to bring sense and order into what they observe, they are actually performing basic mathematical feats.

Gentle watercolor pictures show a landscape changing through the various times of day and the turning seasons, months and years, and the activities of the people and animals who come to live there. But the seemingly simple plan of the book is deceptive... Look more carefully and you will see:

  • One-to-one correspondences
  • Groups and sets
  • Scales and tabulations
  • Changes over time periods
  • Many other mathematical relationships as they occur in natural, everyday living.

Through these concepts, the reader is subtly led to see and understand the real meaning of numbers.
