The Prettiest Math Book






This could be the Prettiest Math Book ever, if we had text books like this at school maybe I would have looked forward to the subject. I have always been bad at math despite the fact that my Dad was a math teacher!?!
Aren't these just delightfully lovely, the colors are like candy and the pages are like gift wrap or fabric designs.
Maybe if the teacher had handed out a book like this when I was a kid I would have thought it was time to start drawing - yipeeee.
Title - Whitman New Math 1

  2. I loved math in school. I might have taken it to a whole new level of love if I had this to work from. What a find!

  3. I was and still am pathetic at math but this would definitely have made the painful learning process a little more palatable!
