A clever and charming introduction to the Tangram puzzle, a classic Chinese shape puzzle that's beloved in early math curriculum.
A brave Little Triangle seeks a Chinese dragon to end the long drought. On the quest, Little Triangle meets other shapes who want to help. Using the magic of tangrams, the shapes do amazing things together: Two triangles flip and flap to make a butterfly! With a square, they swap and swivel to make a bat! Four shapes jump and bump to become a bird. But there's still no sign of the dragon they need. When they reach a mountain, no matter how much they hop and plop, huddle and muddle, or leap and heap, the shapes can't find a way to the top. How will they ever find the dragon they're searching for? Author Christine Liu-Perkins and illustrator Lynn Scurfield celebrate tangrams in this clever and warm-hearted story about the power of persistence and teamwork. The book includes tangram shapes for readers to cut out, so they can play with their very own tangram puzzle!Languages:EnglishPublisher:Bloomsbury Publishing PLCISBN-13:9781547608058ISBN-10:1547608056UPC:9781547608058Book Category:Juvenile FictionBook Subcategory:Fairy Tales & Folklore, Mathematics, ConceptsBook Topic:Country & Cultural, Size & ShapeSize:10.36 x 10.27 x 0.40 inchesWeight:1.0207Product ID:SC8E8NTTY1
