Ms. Rockliff searches for little-known interesting tidbits about history and historical figures and shares them with the world with her engaging picture books.
In this book she focuses on Thomas Jefferson's love for numbers and how this passion allowed him to combat the famous Frenchman Buffon's erroneous conclusions about America, its creatures and its land.
A must-read for mathematicans or for individuals who want to foster the love for numbers in young people's lives. A perfect read aloud when learning about Thomas Jefferson too!
*Highly recommend.
