Synopsis

The Magic of Circles is a lively zoo adventure that shows young readers how fun figures and shapes can be. This inventive, delightful children’s book is conceived to develop Pre-K math skills by exploring circles and counting. And, it’s also designed to further reading skills by nurturing a young person’s natural curiosity. A whimsical teaching tool featuring a loveable cast of zoo animals, The Magic of Circles will captivate this age group, while the characters also help them make sense of the mathematical world around them. The toddler Nickel Zipper will only eat food in the shape of circles. That poses a big challenge for his older sister Penny, along with all of the animals at their dad’s zoo. However, Nickel’s appetite at Zipper Zoo also presents young readers, their parents, and their teachers with a terrific opportunity to immerse in the amazing world of math. The skills included in the story, geometry and counting, are directly connected to learning standards for children, but also challenges them with its high level application of those concepts. Children will learn how to problem solve with Marvin the Monkey, the math whiz who Penny has found to help get Nickel to eat. Join Nickel, Penny, Marvin, and friends as they open their world to the limitless possibilities of math!
