From the publisher

Caldecott Honor winner Grace Lin celebrates math for every kid, everywhere! Manny and his friends Olivia and Mei blow bubbles in this playful introduction to geometry. Manny’s wand is a circle. Olivia’s wand is a square. Mei’s wand is a heart. What shape will their bubbles be? (Surprise! They’re all spheres.) Storytelling Math celebrates children using math in their daily adventures as they play, build, and discover the world around them. Joyful stories and hands-on activities make it easy for kids and their grown-ups to explore everyday math together. Developed in collaboration with math experts at STEM education nonprofit TERC, under a grant from the Heising-Simons Foundation.
