"[T]he authors take a complex abstraction and make it accessible to young readers through non-technical descriptions, relatable examples, and full color, original photos that effectively reinforce the text... Like the authors' previous titles, this current work offers solid math along with reassuring encouragement. This attractive offering will enhance STEAM collections and spark curiosity and conversation among young readers."
“Sarah C. Campbell does a grand job of not only saying what infinity is, but also makes it clear what infinity is not...it establishes infinity’s importance for the younger readers and it does so admirably. A necessary purchase for libraries!”
