About the Book:
Math is all around us, and in this clever and enlightening picture book, readers see how math, nature, and poetry intermingle and collaborate...well, naturally. Each clever equation is a tiny, perfect poem that prompts readers to look at the ordinary and see the miraculous. Can you look at an egg in a nest and see a jewelry box? How are sunlight and heat like an alarm clock? Engaging sidebars reveal the science behind the signs of spring.

I loved hearing about the process you went through for this book, Laura. It makes me laugh when people say, "How hard could it be to write a picture book?"
Best,

Haha--yep. Worst. Question. Ever. At least Mel doesn't ask that! Thanks, Leah!
Mel would never!! :)
