About This Item
New York: Philomel Books, 1983. First Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. The inside of the book is clean and fresh, showing light use only. The laminated pictorial covers are in lovely condition -- clean and unmarked, showing no wear. The dust jacket is not price-clipped and is also in very good condition, with minor edgewear. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover. A very nice copy. Synopsis: This picture book for young children is about one jar with one island, two countries, six mountains, twenty four walled kingdoms and so on. The story introduces factorials, the mathematics of large numbers. The author comments that "learning about numbers and how they can expand without limit has given readers, we hope, an idea of the mystery, wonder and excitement than can be experienced through mathematics".
