Octopuses Have Zero Bones: A Counting Book About Our Amazing World (Math for Curious Kids, Illustrated Science for Kids)

Upon looking at the cover, I thought this was going to be a counting book for younger readers. However, once I opened the book, I saw that it is cram-packed full of a ton of information for older readers. Readers aren’t counting to ten in this book. This book is full of information on powers of ten and place value. I learned what decibels are and why they are important. Did you know helicopters are one hundred decibels? I guess that’s why operators wear earmuffs.

This is a really cool book. The text is easy to read and interesting. The illustrations are very cool and brightly colored. I like how each page helps you to think about the world in numbers in a different way than you usually would. This book is way cooler than I expected.
