Tatyana Popova: Chevostik. Fun math

Why are Arabic numerals actually Indian? Is it possible to measure the length with your elbows and palms? What numbers are called round? How to learn to count using strings?

In the new book in the series of children's encyclopedias, Chevostik and Uncle Kuzya will go on an unusual journey and find out why without knowledge of mathematics it is impossible to build a ship, draw a picture and even... bake a cake. They will learn what a geometric figure is, what units of measurement of length and weight people used in ancient times, and will also see how mathematics helps doctors perform complex operations.

Who is Chevostik?
Chevostik is a cute hero from a famous audio project. Today the guys know him from encyclopedias. The series continues to publish books that explain the structure of the world to children.
Children perceive information much better when some fairy-tale character tells them about the world. That is why girls and boys love such encyclopedias so much.
Chevostik, together with Uncle Kuzya, makes amazing journeys into the world of science: physics, chemistry, astronomy, anatomy, geology and others. He tells children about great geographical discoveries, space exploration and magical chemical transformations.
