Life on the Infinite Farm, Paperback / softback Book

Life on the Infinite Farm Paperback / softback

Part of the Monograph Books series

Paperback / softback

Description

Pay a visit to the Infinite Farm! In Life on the Infinite Farm, mathematician and award-winning children's book author Richard Schwartz teaches about infinity and curved space through stories of whimsical farm animals.

Join Gracie, the shoe-loving cow with infinitely many feet, Hammerwood, the gum-loving crocodile with an endless mouth, and their friends as they navigate the challenges that come with being infinitely large.

Children as young as 5 will enjoy the lighthearted illustrations and the fanciful approach to infinity.

Older students (and even adult professional mathematicians) will also appreciate the more advanced ideas and geometric references.

The two approaches are woven together to appeal to a wide audience, from budding mathematicians to hardcore geometers.
