Dot and the Line: Romance in Lower Mathematics

Everyone keeps writing about how this story is about mathematics. To me, it's about art elements. It's great! And very, very funny. It teaches you how to see circles and lines in a whole new way. I wish it wasn't out-of-stock, I would order several copies...

I learned about this story years ago when I saw an actual short video that was made of this story and fell in love with it. Found the book recently as a great read to my grandkids, 7 and 8, who both have wry senses of humor. It's also a fun introduction to geometry, geometric expression, and illustration of abstract ideas, like "profound" and "compelling." They love it. Of course they prefer to have it read to them so we can all share the fun; I'm not sure ow much they could get through of it on their own. To me, it's more of a teaching ideas book than a learning to read book.

A sweet and charming tale that was the basis for the animated short of the same name.

Cutest story ever. Good prompt delivery and good condition as well.

This book was given to me when I was in 5th grade by my teacher due to my utter confusion mathematically. Though it did not change my mathematical abilities, it honestly changed my life! The vast colorful wording that comes to life is such a treat; I share it with all my friends, and it's so very clever! like another reader said, "genius".
