ABCs of Mathematics by Chris Ferrie - ADVISABLE

Ferrie, Chris ABCs of Mathematics.  PICTURE BOOK.  Sourcebooks Jabberwocky, 2017.  $10. 

This colorful ABC math book teaches different math concepts, terms and ideas in a bright and simply illustrated fashion.  It’s great that it not only is ABCs, but also adds a short definition for the term along with a visual illustration of the math concepts.  I don’t know if the intended audience would be able to sit down and listen to the entire book of definitions in one sitting, but I could see it being used in a classroom as a teaching tool before working on a specific concept.  It’s a great introduction to make math concepts approachable and visual!
