This title defines important geometry vocabulary in simple, accessible terms, reinforcing the text with illustrations of the different types of and relationships between triangles. Activities on identifying, measuring, and comparing angles help readers understand these important ideas.
Drawing on his years of experience teaching math, David Adler's text thoroughly introduces fundamental mathematical concepts. Colorfully illustrated by nonfiction veteran Ed Miller, this book is perfect for readers just beginning to study shapes and geometry.

About the Author:
David A. Adler taught math for eight years. In that time he learned many things from his students -- including the fact that they thought fractions were hard. So he decided to prove that learning how to work with fractions is not only easy, but also fun! He lives with his family on Long Island.
Edward Miller loves to make concepts clear to kids and has demonstrated that in his previous nonfiction books. School Library Journal praised his Alphabeep: A Zipping, Zooming ABC by Debora Pearson as "stunningly illustrated." He lives in New York City.
From Booklist:
Edward Miller loves to make concepts clear to kids and has demonstrated that in his previous nonfiction books. School Library Journal praised his Alphabeep: A Zipping, Zooming ABC by Debora Pearson as "stunningly illustrated." He lives in New York City.
Adler and Miller, whose previous books include Working with Fractions (2007) and Perimeter, Area, and Volume: A Monster Book of Dimensions (2012), offer a well-organized and brightly illustrated introduction to triangles. The clearly written text moves quickly, stopping occasionally to ask questions. Mathematical terms, such as angle, vertex, equilateral, isosceles, scalene, similar, and congruent, are explained along the way. Miller’s digital illustrations feature rounded people and robots working with brightly colored, geometric shapes. Since some early geometry books fudge on the illustrations (roundish shapes for circles, four-sided ones with uneven lines for rectangles), it’s a pleasure to find one in which the straight lines are actually straight and the geometric figures are exact and helpfully labeled. While most children will need time and practice to absorb all the ideas introduced here, the orderly presentation of concepts and the precise yet lively illustrations make this book a fine resource for kids learning about triangles and those reviewing what they’ve learned. Grades K-3. --Carolyn Phelan
